Singulair / Montelukast *improving* mood..?? And if you can relate, did it last for you?
Hello.
So, I tried to look this up online and all I could find was side effects information on the opposite for some—increased anxiety, agitation, hostility, aggression, etc.
I’m autistic with ADHD, so I’m wondering if the neurological difference factors here, however, I went from just feeling meh most of the time to feeling exuberant, content, not having to force myself to smile because now I easily do, and just eating up every moment with people/my family. (I’m an introvert who felt burnt out most of the time, but not anymore!)
I wonder if it’s (also) improving my sleep and that may really be the key here, but has anyone else had a similar experience?
I started it on Monday night, and since Tuesday morning I’ve been a happy-go-lucky person. I just put two-and-two together this morning.
For added context, I’m also on: - Wellbutrin (substitute for stimulant medications for ADHD) - Zyrtec - Allegra - Cromolyn Sodium - Ketotifen - and several other prescribed supplements for my chronic illnesses, etc.
Maybe it’s a combination? I’m not sure. But I’m happy and am wondering if this has happened for others. I’m hopeful this mood-boost will continue, but I’m definitely curious about others’ experiences with Singulair. Thank you!
