"this drug took an awfully long time to work. i hadn&#039;t been able to notice its subtle effects until about 2 months into treatment. it does lift your mood up by a tiny fraction, is great for general anxiety and it sparks up your motivation a bit. i had been on this medication alone for no avail, but when i paired it with an ssri (zoloft), it made a huge difference. i recommend this combination for treatment of depression."
