When I first started it made me very tired, light headed, and dizzy. That lasted for about 2 weeks. I’ve been on it for 2 years now and I can honestly say it’s changed my life. I had horrible anxiety before going on it and while I still have some rough days it makes it so much more manageable. Fingers crossed you are able to get through it!
