I'd give it more time. It helps me so much with my anxiety, more than any benzo ever did!
Thanks for wanting to know Raspberry! So, you are taking about 600mg more than I am. My pdoc said people can take up to like 3000mg. I like to take the least amount of drugs that I can. I did feel mellow the first week, but that has kind of worn off. Sigh. I'm still obsessing really bad and my OCD is still bad. I do miss Cymbalta for that. . Maybe it will get better each day! Fingers crossed! Thanks for sharing your regimen.
