Thanks for replying, Sorry did you mean you stopped using it at 9 months because the drug was not working or it was working but you decided to stop because of the affects?

It just stopped working. Had9 good months then the headaches returned. I then stopped taking it and realised how spaced out I’d been when I became ‘normal’
