    hi joanne

    im in a similar situation. this is my 4th time restaring it as well

    im only on day 4 though so im a bit behind you.

    it will work for you again it just takes longer each time to kick in and get through the nasty side effects

    hi, it normally takes about 6 weeks for me. have you heard it takes longer to work the more times you have been on it. i am on it for anxiety so I am hoping its not too long. what dose are you on?
