I'm three days in and despite and almost euphoric first two days of feeling like I was high on something, I am feeling crappy. Awful headache, can't sleep etc. I feel like I am on come down by the time it reaches around 9pm, then I'm anxious and shivery with a tight jaw all night. Maybe should I be on a higher dose so it doesn't leave my body? I'm on 50mg? I wondered if I should take it at night instead but then it would wear off from the afternoon and that would be awful.

Although, that isn't my main question. I wondered if anyone has experience of actually losing weight rather than gaining on these? A symptom of my own depression is eating too much and I was worried that ADs would make this worse but so far I've lost my appetite.

I know it's very early days and that I have to stick at it.

Great! Hopefully you are coming out the other end.

feck it anyway.

I just noticed you started this thread just over a week ago, and you'd been on them a few days by then. They do say the first 2/3 weeks can be shit but it does get better.
