I’m week 5 today . I got only a few side effects , headaches , nausea , off food and aching jaw . I have a panic disorder / health anxiety . I was at the end of my tether . I started on 25 mg now 50 mg . Touch wood I have not had a panic attack since starting it . Can get a little anxious at times , but gez it’s nothing compared to my extreme 24/7 anxiety . Hang in there as it’s def worth it . I also have Xanax that I can take when needed . Good luck
