"i was experiencing anxiety and depression for awhile. being a full time student didn&#039;t help the situation at all so i finally decided to get on a medication that my doctor recommended and one that wouldn&#039;t have a side effect of weight gain. the first week i woke up in the middle of the night with huge panic attacks and feeling like i didn&#039;t know where i was at! after a few days, i realized it was just a side effect of my medication. another side effect i experienced the first week was being extremely tired. so tired that i had to pull over while i was driving one day and have my brother take over. now that i&#039;ve been on duloxetene 30mg for a few weeks it has done wonders! my mood is so much more stabilized. high recommend this drug!! :)"
