It's helping! I started at 0.5 mg for 2 days then went up to 1 mg for a week then went to 2 mg, where I am now. It started helping within hours of my first dose! Basically no side effects at first. Since I went to 2mg however, I've got some side effects that are pretty annoying, but I think they're going away. I started getting some anxiety, kind of in waves that would gradually fade... even worse though, I think I got some tardive dyskinesia or something... talked to pdoc on the phone and he agreed that's what it probably is; thank god it seems to be going away, though. The anxiety and TD are much better now but still there a little bit, if it doesn't fade more in a couple days, I'll just go back down to half a dose. Overall if I can get past the side effects, it works great! I'll ask my doc about trouble coming off of it, but honestly if this stuff works, I don't think I'll be coming off it anytime soon!
