I've been taking it for a long time. It's a great drug. Very little side effects unless you're above 20mg a day, then they become noticeable.

It made my bipolar symptoms worse, I would get agitated easily, and my adhd was through the roof

It worked really great for my IBS, but I was just a reluctant child and didn't want to take it. But with that anxiety it helped.

Some difficult side effects but they are lessening (I am only on week 2). Less intrusive thoughts and anxiety

I reacted very poorly to it but I was also 13 on way too high a dosage. I won’t say whether or not I recommend it because everyone is different, but either way this isn’t a med that you want to stop taking cold turkey. Woof.
