>Lily,
I agree with Melissa. The side effects aren't worth it. I'm seeing my doc tomorrow and I plan on asking her to take me off of it. I'm tired of not remembering stuff and not being able to articulate, period. I believe that maybe this drug is for some but you seem to have the classic side effects.
LindaLily,
