In reply to Does tiredness go away?, posted by Jack Smith on April 6, 2003, at 14:01:21
I started at 75mg and then went up to 150mg after a month. The 75mg dosage made me so sped up that I felt as though I was going to jump out of my skin for about the first week along with terrible insomnia. After that I just felt like I actually had energy for the day ahead of me even though I couldn't sleep for more than about 5 1/2 hours a night. That was actually a good side effect for me since I have a history of over sleeping due to depression. (sorry this is so lengthy)Anyway, I decided to take a chance on better control of my anxiety even though depression had been obliterated at 75mg,and try 150 mg. I was expecting to be jumping out of my skin again but I was SOOOOOO tired for the first week!! Yes, that has worn away alot and Im averaging about 7 hours of sleep a night. I still wake up alot but its not so bad. The anxiety is gone. I also experienced feeling euphoric and alittle distant from reality. Hope things go well for you too. You'll adjust to it most likely.
