    hi!

    i would like to comfort you. the symptoms you are experiencing are normal. this means the medicine works for you. it just takes a long time for your brains to adjust.

    i have been taking 20 mg for 9 weeks now, and i just started feeling better.

    so stay strong... it may take a while!!
