"i felt it working in a couple of days and i felt great! the depression lifted and i felt so much more energy, no more crying and actually wanted to do things! there is depression that runs in my family and i also feel like it happens more seasonally in the winter. however, after a week of taking it, i developed an allergic reaction and broke out in hives on my legs. this is the first allergy i&#039;ve ever had!  had to stop taking it due to the reaction and now i&#039;ve been put on pristiq...we will see how things go."
