I did have for the first week, which is weird I hear but I had dry mouth, chills, cloudy thinking, dilated pupils, and felt lethargic. I feel much better now, other than the insomnia I seem to be ok. I have to increase my dose at the end of this week though, so I'm a bit worried about where that is going to leave me. I was told that the anti-anxiety aspect of the med. kicks in almost immediately while the anti-depressant takes a while longer to stabilize the depression. I also notice that I have been a less motivated to exercise, maybe just because I don't feel as high strung? Who knows. What has your experience been?
