    I have been on 10mg for a little over 4 weeks now. Right now I have good and bad moments more so than good or bad days. When I get anxious it is completely crazy and irrational, I shake and get the sweats and need to focus on my breathing. It's nuts. My boyfriend probably hates me. Try to stay positive - most of the stories are successful and they all say it can take a few months to work how it should and when it does it is well worth it. Many claim it gets way worse before it gets better.

    Hope it works for you

      I'd say anxiety. I go through the same things but do not believe I am depressed. But if you find out something different let me know, cause obviously I'm depressed too then!!

      Good luck

      Hang in there, everyone says it gets worse before it gets better. Most people seem to say about 6-8 weeks for the medicine to work. I am on my 5th week and trying to stay positive.

      Sorry, I am still figuring that out myself. I just focus on my breathing and tell myself I'm being irrational. Hope it gets better.
