Side effects for most people do reduce with time but it can be several weeks before things start to settle.
Most people do feel worse at the start so you are not alone 😃

hi lee ann
ive been to hell and back over the last few weeks starting these tablets but i feel so so so much better this week. It has been like a rollercoaster one day/minute up and the next down. ive had so many side effects too. i did 2 and a half weeks at 10mg now im on week 5 of 20mg and starting to have moments of feeling myself. ive had side effects on and off up until last week and im still not 100% i wont get more. the general trend is im on the up though!
dont expect to feel better straight away they are not a quick fix but it will get better i promise you! keep us updated and feel free to lean on us for your bad days. message me anytime you like!
