How bad can the irritability and mood swings be when taking Phentermine?

There is a point during the day where you come down from the effects of the drug wether you've burned all the energy off or not because our bodies can't handle a hyperactive state for too long. This "come down" happens rapidly. When I say rapidly I mean I would basically be in a manic state, experiencing a positive "I love life" mood then not even 30 minutes later I was ready to tear anyones head off that came near me. Sometimes I would still be manic but it would be more violent or aggressive. This can be very dangerous if you're not willing to exercise and burn off the energy or reduce the amount of phentermine you take. THIS IS NOT AN EASY COP OUT SOLUTION TO LOSE WEIGHT! I gained the weight back the first few times because I was relying on the pills to keep the weight off. Guess what. If you don't change your eating and exercise habits you're still the same lazy f*ck you were 30 lbs ago. Get off your butts and do something besides popping pills. Tell your stubborn wives to read this. If she doesn't wanna change then she's probably a selfish b*tch and always will be.

Afterwards of course I continued to take the pills because I believed what the Dr told me and I went into depression crying and very very sleepy my cousin tried helping me get a job at the hospital where she worked but I was in no shape to even think about finding another job. Two days before my wedding I stopped taking the pills I had gotten back to 120lbs (I had went through a lot of stress a couple years back and had gained slot of weight I had gotten to 160 lbs never had I ever gotten that big except when I was pregnant with my kids) on my honeymoon I started experiencing stomach pains and diarrhea really bad but I still didn’t figure out it was the pills I thought I had food poisoning the pain and diarrhea continued even when I got home one day I woke up on the toilet didn’t know how I got there no one was home I had a trail from my bed to the toilet I must’ve passed out on the toilet. I called my dad and he took me to the hospital they didn’t really do anything they checked me and dismissed it as a virus that needed to run it’s course... it was soooo bad I had to wear a diaper to school (I couldn’t control my bowels) I finally started feeling better and stopped my bouts of crying and started feeling like myself and I stared doing research on the pills and i found out that the pills do if you take them for a long period of time in my case it was non stop for about 6 months! They will cause mild schizophrenia and with in a year I went from 120 lbs to 193lbs after I stopped taking the pills I couldn’t control my eating I could never get full..

With obesity a huge problem in our society surely this drug is extremely profitable allowing the manufacturers to hide negative reviews online. I stopped taking the drug and started to feel myself again. Thank God my husband loves me enough to have seen through it! Well, that was not enough. After a couple weeks I convinced myself that perhaps I could take it again if I just took LESS. Instead of 3 pills a day I only took half in the mornings. That shouldn’t be so bad right? I told myself I would only take it long enough to loose 15 pounds. I made it halfway losing 8 pounds but I also lost complete control of my emotions too. I couldn’t calm myself to think clearly. I was suspicious and paranoid. I got myself (and my support system) worked up to the point where I made legal decisions that affect both mine and my husband’s lives and even ended up in the hospital for 5 days because I became suicidal! Please do NOT use this drug! Please find a healthier solution for losing weight. You may think you can handle it like I did but it really does sneak up on you and makes your sanity slip right through your fingers like water trickling through no matter how tightly you clench your hands. I was making important decisions as if I was a robot believing stories I created in my head, awake many nights with a fast heartbeat and overworking mind focused on protecting myself. All the while, this drug is what I needed to protect myself from! I wish you luck on repairing any damage you may have made and loving your body as you find healthier ways to transform it. I have learned my lesson the very hard way to be more cognizant of what I put into my body.

Many women expressed becoming depressed and regret destroying their perfectly fine relationships by affairs or divorce. Mine verbalized the space and separation idea a year ago and after a month became mellow and back to normal. I can only assume she stopped taking the drug. Oh and sex resumed. A year later it's back with a vengeance. Seems like she's back on it. Plus she's menopausal. Confronting her about this would probably really be the last straw. I'm gonna have to for the sake of our son. In speaking to a pharmacist it seems that this drug is popular among older women.
