Yeah it's quite an experience. Some of the effects fade with time and others appear (positive ones).
How is it going 2 weeks later?
Hey there, thanks for responding two weeks later.
So I al doing this trial run where I will find my dosage. It has been mostly great! My thoughts are still not spiralling as they used to.
I've been experiencing the negative side where I get trouble sleeping. And I feel a bit of, not really full on headache as I know it, but a "cousin symptom" of it?
The negative effects occured at the same time I increased dosage from 18 mg + 18 mg morning- afternoon to 36 mg + 18 mg. I have a scheduled follow up meeting in the middle of April but I asked them yesterday to get back to me with an earlier time to discuss dosage, side effects, etc. The idea with the test run is for me to go up to 36 morning + 36 afternoon tomorrow, but I am reluctant ATM because I want to handle sleep better
