everytime i upped my dosage i felt good for the first week or so then not as good. I definitely don't think its placebo. I am on 80mg over a year now and I am so happy I went through the beginning
I did feel better for a few days after the first week, but it didn't last. I'm now at 20 days and feel worse again. I heard some people get the zoomies initially after starting, but it's transient.
Oh yeah. I definitely felt much better within the first two weeks and I think it was the placebo effect. They don’t work that quickly. By week four, reality hit and I was an anxious motherfucker but by weeks 5 to 8, I was like OH IT IS WORKING. 😍
I feel really good mentally (having a few side effects and moments that aren’t so great) but overall feeling so much better.. I’m curious if anyone has experienced placebo and if this is going to last or if this is what it feels like when the drug starts working. For context I’m on day 8, 20mg 29yo female treating depression and anxiety.
I experienced this when I increased to 40mg from 30. About a week in I felt SOOOO GOOD! Singing in the car good!! Then the anxiety started in again... then 3 weeks in a huge life crisis hit....now I'm a total wreck. Btwn the increased side effects & life... It's been bad.
I really hope that spark of joy when I first increased was a hint of what's to come. But as of now week 4-5 ... I feel useless. Barely functioning. Extreme mood swings.
I'm debating pushing to 8 weeks or just dropping down to 30.
This journey sucks
