I don't know why it made me so hungry. But I had to stop it because of the hunger and yeah Its useless when it comes to anxiety and pretry much everything else.

I did have one diffrent generic of Visteriel that worked pretty well and didnt cause hunger. I was on it I think when I switched from the Walmart pharamacy to the Walgreens pharamcy in early 2020. It helped my anxiety a lot I just couldnt lose weight on it. I didnt realize that was why I wasnt losing weight until I had my surgery in October 2020 and I stopped the visteril because I was worried about mixing it with opiates. Then my weight started dropping and I googled it and saw that other people couldnt lose weight on it either no matter how hard they tried.

This generic version I have in my new state is useless and causes hunger. I dont understand how there can be genrics that cause diffrent side effects despite being the same med.
