For Major Depressive Disorder "It made my face swell up so bad my eyes looked barely open, they were so puffy. And this was after taking it for over 6 months. Side effect just came out of nowhere. I now take Prozac 40 and Lamictal 150 and feel so much better. And it didn’t really seem to help much with my depression, I was still laying in bed and sleeping most days and nights, although maybe slightly less than unmedicated."

For Bipolar Disorder "This medicine worked for me, except the side effect of swelling feet and ankles, and pain in the ankles. I stopped the medicine on my own due to the swelling."
