I did fairly well on it for 5 years. Pre SSRI's which, at least for me, suck. I've never slept better and would wake up refreshed.

I was on 250 mg which is a lot. For me, very constipating. I kept Senokot in business.

Weird thing on it, I loved to exercise but can't guarantee that anyone else will. Sexual side-effects. Made me manic at times but was probably bipolar and didn't know it.

It's a big gun. I think it will help with anxiety and panic.

Watch what you eat or you will gain weight, not as bad as anti-psychotics though.

The pills smell like a chemical plant, which they basically are.
