Advice & Tips
I fell on May 1st and I did not cry after only a few days of taking the medication. There is no doubt I would have cried, now I have the control. Many other times in the past week that I would have cried uncontrollably, but now I cry when it is truly appropriate and desired.

Advice & Tips
This drug seems to become less effective over time. I've gradually had to increase my dose from the original 50mg/day to 200mg/day. Also, I've self-adjusted the dosage seasonally with doctor supervision. I decrease the dose in May and increase the dose in November.

After 20 years of taking SSRI's, starting with prozac, I am now convinced that these drugs actually brought on Parkinson's disease. Now, my goal is to completely reverse the damage that has been done.
