I'm verry sorry to hear the lost of your cousin. I was on it for about
6 days when I began experiencing those side effects. I had written a
goodbye note and had planned to jump off a bridge! I started feeling
better about 4 days after I stopped taking them. Depression faded and
I'm back to myself again. I NEVER want to experience this again. My
doctor has made a note of it.
