    9 weeks on 150mg it's fixed my depression. initial side effects were headaches and probably worse anxiety and depression, but definitely worth staying the course. Wanted to post some positive news, having lurked and taken hope from these posts for the last 5 months when I felt that I wouldn't bounce back.

    Depression has really improved. Still in the monitoring phase and will review dose in about a month. Anxiety was actually my main issue and I understand it takes longer to work on that.
