"Really helped stabilize my mood and fight depression. However, side effects for me were pretty tough: hyperhidrosis, nightmares, weight gain. But it's definitely worth a shot, not all people experience side effects. It can be life-changing for people with BPD with comorbidities like PTSD and anxiety."

"I take quite a high dosage of 120 mg once in the morning or when I wake up. It’s used to reduce pain from nerve damage I had when I severed my left leg - now reattached. If I take it consistently, I have a pretty good window of not a lot of pain. Side effects for me are that it ramps up my anxiety at times, dizziness, thirst all the time, and sweating a lot (I do exercise a lot though)."
