    I have taken it once before for 2.5 years and again started this January at 20 MG. I am now at 19 weeks and I had some very good weeks after around week 15. It takes time, but it does work. Read through the posts on here, it really helps just to feel re-assured and hear other's success stories. Not everyone is the same, so don't worry if you read that someone has harsh side effects, that does not mean it will happen to you. I could not sleep for the first two months, and now my sleep is returning for which I am so grateful. Wishing you well, you'll feel so much better soon. The first step is starting the meds. Not easy, but does help.
