then the side effects should subside. Take if from someone who's been on almost every anxiety/AD/mood stabilizer out there! It's just your body adjusting to it. Once it gets in your system and you get accustomed to it, you should be feeling better.

When I started taking the one I'm currently on, I felt like I had the flu for about a week. It was horrible! The doctor encouraged me to stick with it---and after that initial period, I was feeling fine.

Hang in there! It takes a full several months before most of these AD's work. Give it TIME. Remember how Nugget said she wasn't sure of the Effexor. Now she's glad she stuck with it.

Good luck! And I hope you feel better soon.
