"i am a 70 yr old woman &amp; have had anxiety &amp; depression my whole life. this medication has changed my life. i took it initially for shingles but noticed immediately that my anxiety was gone so i phoned my psychiatrist (i am bipolar) &amp; asked to be put on it.  he agreed no problem. i take 300 mg 3 times a day. i hope this helps others with anxiety &amp; depression. i am like a new woman!"
