"i started this medication about a year ago. since then my outlook has generally been more positive. i&#039;m not as irritable but still a little. things seem more hopeful and i only get the occasional blues. one word of advice however, is do not stop taking it instantly, no matter what. don&#039;t forget to take it or miss doses. i had a period where i stopped taking it because i forgot and i just didn&#039;t want to, i said &quot;i&#039;ll start it tomorrow, i already missed my normal dose time&quot;. but just 2 days after i started getting odd behavior and about a week and a half in. i felt paranoid as if i was being watched, i saw things, i was nervous, i would smell things and everything felt very strange. but all in all good medicine.
