I feel like I've heard someone on this very site talk about it being very rough. But that's the only time I've heard of it, sorry :/

Yes. It's been almost 20 years, though. I remember depression and a lot of bloody noses, but I don't remember it taking too long to get back to "normal." I don't remember the dosage. I was taking it for migraine prevention (didn't work).

That validates how my depression and anxiety have been bouncing off each other more severely. At least I'm not having bloody noses. I'm sorry you had those.

Are you tapering? I haven't used it long term, just for test or stage anxiety, worked well enough.

Yeah I'm tapering.
