It’s helped me immensely!

I don’t remember my dosing, but it was XR & I had horrible nightmares, like woke up not able to discern between a dream & reality. I think if you stay away from the XR dosing & you’ll be fine.
I’ve been on it for about 3 months now. It really helped pull me out of a depressive episode but my anxiety is definitely higher. I also had really severe tremors for the first few weeks. I still get them but they are barely noticeable now. Other than that I’m pretty happy with it.

I won’t lie, for me it hasn’t done much. On 100 now. Although I have trouble remembering the second dose so it’s probably 50 more so. Wish it worked
I've been on it a couple of times. Once in my early twenties and also last year (late twenties now). Initially it helped me a lot. I thought I had ADHD at the time.. but I think it just threw me into a hypomanic episode because I'm actually bipolar. So I felt really good. Hyper, motivated, etc. I stopped taking it out of concern I would lose my hair (uncommon side effect). Last year I tried it again.. it gave me intense mood swings as it wore off in the evenings.
So far I've been on it for 16 days. The first 3-4 days it was bad, anxiety attacks, rarely ate, and got really irritated. Now? I deal with depersonalization and derealization quite frequently (before the medication), and the last couple days that has gotten worse. Granted appetite is back, but depression seems to be declining again, got mixed feelings but am waiting for the full month just im case it just hasn't "kicked in" yet. Hopefully it goes well if you decide to take it, it seems to work for most people, but side effects typically are: Loss of appetite, dizziness, anxiety, insomnia (good luck sleeping the first week), highened energy, it at least for me makes you feel hiiiigh as a kite at first.
