"i&#039;ve been taking this medication for 20 days. i started taking it because of severe anxiety and depression. i started on 5 mg and within the last 7 days increased to 10 mg. the first couple of days i felt fine then i started to feel really anxious.  i&#039;m still feeling alot of anxiety but my doctor insists that i continue the medication and the anxiety should subside.  i&#039;ve tried so many other medicines and this is the only one i&#039;ve tolerated this long. i&#039;m hopeful and pray that the anxiety does go away. i can honestly say that my mood has definitely improved that&#039;s why i continue to take it. i&#039;ll keep my fingers crossed."
