I'd give it two weeks. That's what most people have told me about my meagre 50mg and (touch wood) today is day 14 and I feel 'stable' if not wonderful.
Hang in there and eat chocolate, make yourself walk, drink hot Ginger Cordial (for the nausea).......................reeeeeelaaaaaxxxxxxxx. Good luck tree.

I'm not sick at all and I have been running outside and trying to keep busy but the thoughts are still lingering. I just don't know if this is the med for me. Im not sure what I should be feeling

My experience is that the 'stuff' is still there but it is sort of subdued and I can just about deal with it. At the moment I am taking my Sert in the morning at breakfast time and on waking I am feeling anxious and a bit 'flakey'. I then listen to a self hypnosis tape and that helps a bit. Once I'm up and active I then try to get out, go to the Gym or Swim (I'm retired and only do Volunteer work) ASAP as I find that sitting or wandering without purpose is the worst.
All the best.
