Everyone will have a slightly different reaction to it, so keep in mind that your reaction will be slightly different from mine.
I took it for a while. Started out ok at a low dose, but when I got a higher dose it made me have suicidal thoughts so I stopped.
It might not have that effect for you, it might end up the medication that works for you. I would take it and see. Just if you have any bad side effects stop taking it and call your doctor right away.
Good luck

I have a nine year old son, so I know how you feel. I also am afraid of trying any new meds because I have had some horrible reactions to them. I keep trying for my son. He deserves a mom that can be there for him. Not saying anything about you, just how I feel about me lol

It's so hard to know what to do, I feel stuck in a rut that I cant get out of, so down, just wish there was a cure! :-( x

I know that feeling oh to well, if yo can't do it by yourself try meds, I'm on citalopram 10mg, I've only started taking it today but we shall see, I've been trying to deal with it all for 4 weeks wit no meds, I haven't progressed any further so have had to Admit defeat and take some meds, Praps that's what you need too?
