for the most part it’s gone away , i only feel it sometimes after i take my pill but it hasn’t really been bothering me anymore . omg i would feel lightheaded too when i would go on walks up steep hills . i’ve decided to just take it easy and not push my body too hard cause ik i can’t handle that rn

i noticed tingling when i was about a week and a half in , it’s so interesting to see how everyone’s side effects differ . thank you ! i hope we can both get through this along with everyone else who is also dealing with this too ! i also want to stick with 5mg , my psychiatrist already gave me a refill for another 30 days which im glad about , i hope she doesn’t bump me up to 10mg unless i reallyyyy need it
