Had it 4 seperate times.  First 2 times were for PND and it probably saved me completely, no real side effects and got me back on track and into the most positive time of my life, working in maternity and starting my midwifery degree.  3rd time I did get real high anxiety side effects and had to come off before 6 weeks was up because I started to increase my SH.  Final time ok, no side effects at all and taking maximum dose to help with ED habits as well as depression.  Came off them a few weeks ago, but came off all meds and for my own f****d up reasons and not as directed. (not advisable).

On the wole thoug, I'd say it was a good one with minimal side effects for most people and a really positive outcome.

I was on it for a few months. The only side effects I got were increased sensitivity to light (sunglasses helped) and headaches.

How's it going hun?

I am feeling rather sick, and have headache. My appetite is a bit weird.
But apart for that I'm ok, I think, heads mushed but. Meh. The whole feeling sick thing is getting to me, sick scares me. Feeling sick and being sick freaks me out.

I guess it's only been 4 days so I need to ride it out?

[caspers smudj]

you could try drinking peppermint tea or ginger - both will help with the sicky feeling

Feeling sicky is a common side effect but should pass after a few days, so definitely try to ride it out chick.  I'm on it and have no probs with it (except when I decided to come off it  )  Hope it works for you
