8.7 at 6.45 today, not quite as smiley as I was about yesterdays.

good luck :)

Maybe there is something else you can try afterwards...fingers crossed it gets better for you

It wasn't a very pleasant experience at all. I took mine around then too....not much help sorry, maybe you just need to build it up a bit in your system?

I was recently prescribed this too...I took one pill, slept like I was in a coma, and spent the entire next day drifting in and out of sleep. I couldn't work, drive, function. Needless to say that was the only one I ever took and now have sertraline. What time of day are you taking it?

I am drinking tea with double cream right now, that is the one thing I didn't find difficult to readapt to lol I dont drink coffee. You are probably right about the lunch thing, being literally starving by lunch meant a carb loaded pile of **** from the work canteen, obviously in my defence I...

No I havent...what would be the benefits? I have tried it before, unsuccessfully as I seemed to spend all my time thinking about what I was going to eat. At the moment all I think about is eating regularly, I wake up starving with my stomach growling at me, I feel weak by lunchtime, I have a...

it isnt a race, its a lifelong change as we all know...so no rush, just wanted to get a general headstart. I will eat to my meter as of tomorrow so that will help me know how to get there....thanks all for taking the time to reply, grateful x
