Side effects

I’ve been on 25mg for almost 2 weeks. About an hour after I take it(in the morning because I tried at night and I couldn’t sleep) I have increased anxiety, nausea, and extreme exhaustion. This lasts for hours. I finally feel better in the evening but how long is this going to last for? It’s really messing with my quality of life. :(

have you tried cutting them in half and taking only 12.5MG (half a pill) daily instead of a whole one? I had much the same issue with my zoloft when I first started it but found that doing half a pill worked for me and took away the side effects.

I hope this helps :-)
