"helped a ton post-partum. suffered depression long after both my babies were born. insomnia is common and i took sleep aids for the first year. any tiny disturbance in taking it is not recommended...worst i have ever felt.  the &quot;brain zaps&quot; are like a special kind of torture and my appetite is simply non existent...not good for someone already under weight.  it saved me for a long time but the choice to come off was heavily weighed against the withdrawal symptoms. i am suffering through it a week later. anxiety getting better but physically there is not much change."
