    The sert should kick in soon mate, it does seem to take forever, I'm struggling the same but now on day 14 150mg and think I feel a little better. The gp gave me some 2mg diazepam the other day, and that has def calmed me down. Maybe ask if you can get some? I'm sure we will feel better soon, hang on in there.
