I’ve been on it a month and anxiety wise it’s really helped. I’ve had more better days in the last month than I’ve had in the last two years. That being said I have a hard time staying asleep at night, get head aches and am drowsy during the day. So I might need to switch to something else. But even if I didn’t have any other option I’d take the side effects over the anxiety any day! I feel hope!

I am 6 months postpartum so I have those symptoms as it is 😜 don’t they go away after being on it for a bit? But yes, would most definitely take those side effects over anxiety anyyyy day

@clamb Are your symptoms postpartum related or have you always had it?

Works well for me. My libido took a hit but it wasn’t too bad since I’m young

Yes! I’ve been on 10mg for about a month; I can’t say I feel fully better, but it has improved my anxiety. It can take several weeks to fully kick in with anxiety and OCD! Thinking of maybe upping it to 15mg for more relief ☺️

I just got my SSRI’s and I’m kinda nervous to take them so I was wondering if anyone has had a good or bad experience with them.

I’ve been prescribed this but I have never taken medication and I’m really scared of getting worse? Has anyone got a positive story for this? Thank you
