Then I tried again a year later and it was completly different. I have found plenty of others who are having the same problems. Plenty of people who can't sleep at all if they stop taking it..People who get 6 weeks of constant throwing up...
All sorts of strange reactions.
It is a hell of a drug.
Wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.
