How long were you on and what made you go off it? Four months in I’m feeling better now but I don’t think I want to take it forever
Also, kind of happy to be off it right now honestly, heat is something that doesn’t go along well at all with SSRIs.
However I was in a quite sorry state before... I was having several panic attacks a week. My therapy alone was also not working well, I was doing twice a week. After starting it, everything started falling into place. I never had a panic attack again.
I never had any downside whatsoever from taking them (didn't know they don't go well with summer!), including the regular complaints, it wasn't really a burden on me other than having to buy them monthly and take them every day.
Did wonders for my anxiety too.
