i started yesterday & expected to be holding onto my seat.so far the only thing that's been stimulated is my APPETITE.besides bingeing,i fell asleep last night at 8:30 & tonite i must've passed out at 5 b/cause i just woke up,drooling & everything.
i've emailed my dr. but i'm left wondering why i'm so odd.

Suz...

Love you,

I'm glad it helped your mood....5mg is nothing and probably will not do much for your appetite...did you take it before you ate, during or after?

the xr means extended release, so it lasts longer.
