i started at 5mg and went up to 10mg. i started getting headaches and being tired ALL day. i got nothing done! sleeping much better at night, but not ok for daytime! so last night (i take my dose at night) i went back down to 5mg. (cutting a 10mg tab in half) if this is not the solution and i have to get off altogether, will it be too difficult? i've only been at this about 4-5 weeks.
i've had great improvement w/ anxiety, but unsure about the emotional numbing i am also experiencing. common?
(oh, i should add that my primary med is 375mg wellbutrin w/ .5mg klonopin as needed)
thanks,
t.

Hi Terra
I was only on 5 mg, and was tired and unmotivated. Didn't want to do anything! I didn't have much anxiety, but had terrible guilt from feeling so lazy. Plus my mind would just go blank, and I felt stupid.
I don't know if it will be hard to get off of. I didn't give it that long. Good luck!
