"i have been taking 20 mg of viibryrd for 5 months. i titrated up very slowly and found that 30mg cause restless leg so i went back down to 20mg.  the side effects, like day time sleepiness and gastrointestinal annoyances must be worked through.  they pass.  my anxious depression has lifted and i feel better that i have felt in years.  in conjunction with the meds, i have continued to do depth psychology and psycho-spritual work which i think have also contributed to how well i feel.  people notice how bright i appear.  i am doing better than ever at work and still have energy to run my household. recently, i was even able to return to the gym.  the only side effect i notice is gas and loose stools, a bit of bloat in the gut."
