I would realize, sometimes after the fact, that I hadn't thrown myself into an anxiety attack over something, that I just dealt with it when the time came. Not to say that I never worried, but it didn't control my life.

Blayton, Girlie's description is perfect. I've kept having improvement after eight months. I've been on since Sept or Oct. The side-effects go away slowly about 3-6 weeks, but return with each dose increase for awhile. I've had success with 150mg.

BEST WISHES
Willow
