    i was on this for 18months... be really careful coming off. and dont rush it. i made the huge mistake of thinking i could handle it to drop to half a dose for 2 weeks then stop taking it all together.

    it took me 3months to stop the side effects of withdrawl and i am now in the worst state i have ever been in,housebound and jobless because i rushed coming off them and had to stay in because of the dizziness, sweats, shakes, irritable bowel syndrome started,and hightened anxiety like never before.
    please please learn by my mistake and come off really really slowly,
    good luck

    HI Kim

    I took this for about 6-7 months and came off this no problem - just make sure you do it slowly and surely. I had no side effects at all apart from a slight head buzz sometimes and I think I may have been imagining that!
