Hi
I have been on 20mg per day for nearly a full 6 weeks. Anxiety has dropped a lot vs. where I started and I've been having some good moments (parts of days), but today I feel like I have the flu - sore joints, tired and overall very flat. Is this typical of a blip?
Thanks, Craig

Hi Craig,
Based on what I have read on the forums, yes. You can go low and high for a while until things balance out. I have experienced the body aches as well but they usually happen when I've been on my feet all day and also haven't gotten good sleep. Hopefully you're better today!

yes, it happened to me a couple of times during the first 10 weeks or so that I felt flu-y. About the 5-7 weeks I was suffering from feverishness...I would get spikes of fever and shivers after 5-6pm usually. I remember even asking on this forum about that...then it suddenly passed from 9th week.
I still get occasional tiredness and sore joints and lack of energy, like today after travelling this week, I have been very achy and exhausted, and that is at week 12. Not very common now though at this stage.

Yes, the cloudy head lasted the longest as a side effect for me...maybe for 10 weeks. It was very annoying; it felt like I wanted to constantly rub my forehead to make it go away! I probably still have this a little but not too bad, I don't notice it most of the time.
