Hi

I've been reading with interest. I've only been taking for 2 days & been up since 4am with migraine/sickness. I've been prescribed 50mg. I'm thinking of halving the dose for a few days. I don't think I can be this rough long term. I thought I'd got a bug but it's the pills!

I have low mood and mood swings and have done for as long as I can remember. I've not had any medicine in about 3 years.

Don't think halving will be problem for me has anyone else done this to help with headaches & nausea?

Couldn't face pill today will try tonight. Never had anything alter my perception so quickly.

Thanks for any help.
