However what i did was as soon as i felt it starting to work i cut the dose down to 30mg other wwise the side effects hit very sudden and very hard on 60 and 90mg.

Hi,

I have decided to stay at 45 for at least 8 weeks. I went to 60 for a couple of days and the side effects more or less doubled. I am feeling enough better that I think I can wait it out now. Part of it is that I want to be as little medication as possible and if there is a chance it will work at 45, I want to take it. I am feeling enough better that I think I can stand to wait it out. A big part of it is that I don't want to be on any more medication than I absolutely have to be.

It is tempting to go to 60 and have it work faster but all things considered I think I'd do better to stay a 45 a while longer and see what happens.

Thanks to both of you who responded.

Marsha
