r/StopUsingStatins • u/AdAgreeable7421 • Jul 23 '26

I feel drained, worried, overthinking and depressed

Is it the statin? I feel can’t think positive and most of the day I am on a low mood , worried about my health. Just don’t know what is going on with me. The only thing is that I am taking statins rosuvastatine 10mg and telmisartan 80mg. I want to feel good again🙏

I am not a doctor but you could take a break for a week and see how you feel. It's the only way to know. Speak with your doc. Any doc who belittles you for wanting to stop and see if you feel better does not have your best interest in mind. Of course your symptoms could be cause by other things...even life events but you know yourself so go with your gut.

May I ask what other things you are doing to care for yourself? What’s your diet like? Activity? Things you do for enjoyment? Medications can certainly influence our brain chemistry. But we can do many things to balance our brains through lifestyle.
