"been on this for about a week. so far the pros are: i am much calmer. i have a very stressful job that used to have me yelling and wanting to pull my hair out. now i&#039;m calmly discussing issues with a reasonable mind. also i noticed i have more energy and much more positive outlook on life. i&#039;ve even lost a few pounds because my appetite is somewhat suppressed. the cons are: very vivid dreams. just about every night i have a very lucid and lengthy dream about something in my life. another con is the first few days i felt a little &quot;out of it&quot; as others have said, but that stopped after about 3-4 days. the last con is that it&#039;s expensive. i have two insurances and still had a copayment. but i like it so much, it&#039;s worth the price."
