"i had extreme vision changes, loss of memory, extreme depression with long crying spells, anger, and suicidal thoughts. i have tried it at 3 different points in my life and have had the same experience each time...not good. i tried the medication 3 times because the doctor and i thought that perhaps the side effects were from a mix of other medications i took with the pill. i did have weight loss but it was not worth it at all. i could barely drive and soft drinks (although not really important) tasted amazingly disgusting. i had no warning about all of the things i might experience and it was horrible trying to teach middle school, raise two young children, do daily tasks, and drive. i&#039;ve had friends get divorced due to side effects."
