To my surprise, as a side effect it worked on my anxiety & depression like a dream.
I've tried many anti-depressants and nothing worked like this did.
It does not make me feel high or even feel euphoria. It just made
me feel "normal". So, this is what normal feels like. After suffering from depr/anxiety for decades,
this was much relief for me.
I've been on it for 10 years now for depression only and never abuse it. My tolerance
has gotten a little higher but if I take it like I should, I'm always good.
I just found out my regular doctor who prescribes them will no longer
give them out to me or anyone. HUGE crackdown on opiods here in my state. (even tho it's synthetic) They tell
me to go to a Pain Clinic but that involves constant testing, many visits often, short lived prescriptions. You can
easily be kicked out of the clinic program if you happen to have even a bit more
in your system than you should.
Frankly, I don't want to deal with that. I pray I can continue to get them other ways or I'm in
big trouble.
100% hear you and understand/agree Mikka.
