    I have had fantastic results .. I feel great not a bit of

    Anxiety/depression.. Don't forget you normally only hear about the bad stuff on the Internet. The only reason I am still around on here is because I get email notifications smile. Most people disappear once they are better.

    Still struggling with an iPad that seems near the end of it's life. Lost the better if another message I previously constructed, very frustrating. And going from one site or draft format to construct the reply first and then copy-and-paste isn't in my DNA because I like to go to a field, type it in, send and be done with it. Anyway, I applauded Natalie for doing well, but added that Don's question was very valid. I have taken this med a very long time and get very POed much easily if I lay off it awhile. I do not think it does a lot for my anxiety or mood though and at 150mg/day, I am tired of hearing anyone say I might be "undermedicated." With all the meds I take, I think my quality if life suffers greatly because of it.

    Hi I had a full recovery. I think people are more likely to comment on bad expierenced. Everyone is different and I was to spread the good about this med. Felt odd a first got boughts of irritable, anxiety and felt tearful. Calmed down though and three months I'm back to my self without feeling the high levels of anxiety and worry I had before. Been a lifesaver and helped me so much. Having counselling too. I would recommend not to Miss a tablet though I did and it set me back a week also alcohol doesn't mix well. I do feel hazey and sleepy and perhaps have put on weight. Its worth it though and I hope to come off in six months.
