I skipped a dose last night as I stayed away from home and packed an empty box of meds instead of my new packet!

I'll be heading home in a few hours to take it. But, I woke up this morning and I feel so energetic and alive! I feel amazing if I must say so! I haven't felt this alert, and "normal" in 2 months since starting the meds.

Has anyone else every felt like this before? It making me question whether the tablets are even worth it.

      Thanks for the reply husam. I would never quit without speaking to my doctor first smile I guess I should enjoy this momentary joy. A month ago I skipped a dose because I completely forgot and it had the opposite effect on me.
