    Hi Pam and Dawn. 🤗  I'm doing good. Still got some anxiety in the mornings and the occasional low day but that's not a problem. It's been a long road getting here but worth it now. I assume everyone has been keeping busy as we only check in every once in a while. How have you ladies been keeping? ????

      Hi Laurie 

      Think Iv prob been same as you, I’m going through the menopause so it’s like I’m fighting that, but hoping end of next year I will be through it...

      Do you say u have ups and down days?? I had this for first time last week, about 4 days of just low, not like I was befor I started this med, but not sure if that’s how it goes or because of the menopause my body seems to feel like I’m have PMT but I’m not as last period was March this year.... but ha ho, I’m feeling really good 99% of the time so can’t be bad lol... 

      I’m glad I did increase this med to 60mg and stuck it out, through the bad times, as it as worked out for ME ... 

      hope your ok, big hug to you 🤗x

      hi dawn, 

      just struggling a bit and your post encourages me. 

      I am wondering, when you increased your dose were the side effects as intense as when you first started, 

      and also how long have you been on the 60mg?

      Thanks in advance!!

      Glad to hear that you are feeling really good most of the time smile

    Hi Pam same here. I'm going through menopause. Hot flashes, night sweats. Ugh

    All part of life though. I don't think anybody in this world does not suffer with down days.  We are just more sensitive to them. I keep busy and when I'm feeling low I do what I need to to get through it. It's scary sometimes as I'm afraid of going backwards with this illness. Flou has worked wonders for me again. Its just a slow medicine to get stabilized in our systems. I'm thankful for all of you being here for me and supporting me through a terribly difficult time in my life. 😘😘.

    I’m on day 13 finally coming out the other side..... first week and a half was poor hell and I really did think I was loosing it. Anxiety is still bad as soon as I wake, million thoughts going through my head. 

    Never thought this would happen to me, always been so outgoing and out spoken but looking forward to better and brighter days xxxxx

      Hi Lucy 

      Well done for getting trough the worst days of being on this med... my first two weeks like you were hell on earth, didn’t think I could do it or carry on, but just over 4mth and on 60mg feeling great with the depression and anxiety, just menopause crap to put up with, I’m so glad I came on here in the first few days on this med, to be encouraged to keep going, think it was Laurie who supported me to keep going and that it’s a slow working med, so be thanks to her, as there’s nothing worse then feeling down, and unable to go on...

      So do keep up with the good work, and keep moving forward, even when u may still get the odd day of feeling down, your doing really well.. big hug 🤗x
