I been on it for years and it works great! Tried something else due to my weight but I would rather be fat and happy then thin and depressed! Only on 10mg. The first month is the worst but once you level out it’s awesome! Actually I found out a lot of people in my family take it! They all swear by it!

Happiest of days to come! You will see! It gave me balls I forgot I had! Lol

I love that line..'I'd rather be fat and happy than thin and depressed'... I have said it too for years, that I'd rather be a fat and happy corpse than to have lived a miserable life of dieting and starving just to look good at 70. I gave up the ghost of having the shapely body after menopause kicked me in the butt. And totally gave up the dieting when I started taking my SSRI too... but like you.... I too am helped greatly and wouldn't trade it.

yessssss menopause no joke! Although I still have the young guys chasing me even at 55 years old! So apparently they see something I don’t! I can’t seem to find anyone over 30 who thinks I all that and a bag of chips! So I just go with the flow! I’m going to keep enjoying life because we are not promised tomorrow that’s for sure!

Ahhh.... good things happen when we least expect them... and better to be living than waiting to live with someone.... I learned almost 15 years ago now that your never too old to find love... but again... love found me.... so.... there ya go....miracles do happen... and I'm grateful,... and still in love, and loved.
