"i requested this medication from my pcp for some mild-moderate anxiety.  i heard wonderful things about it and didn&#039;t think twice when i started taking it. i took it for about a week and it was the worst experience of my life.  i had tremors, insomnia, couldn&#039;t eat, spasms, restless but didn&#039;t want to do anything.  i wasn&#039;t depressed in the least prior to starting this medication but after the second dose i felt a depressed.. it was unbearable.  i was then prescribed prozac and had a similar reaction. i lost 15lbs in 3 weeks.
