"i have been taking this medication for a little over a year now and it seems to be working like a charm! i am currently 19 years old and the reason i started this medication was because i was experiencing a lot of anxiety and depression coming out of high school. i have had some recent life changing experiences that have ultimately given me a sense of hopelessness but the medication seemed to calm me down and removed the hopeless feelings. my doctor started me on the 10 mg and i have not yet needed to lower or increase my dosage. the only real side effects that i have experienced were occasional headaches and fatigue. when taking this medication it is very important to not miss a dose as well. i would ultimately recommend this medication."
