angelrose,
I took WB for about 2 1/2 months and had the same initial reaction to it as you are having now. But I stuck it out and really worked out well for me. It eventually pooped out and I've been trying new meds ever since. I wish it had continued to work for me as it was the best of the bunch. The rule of thumb is to give a med at least six weeks to get the full effect unless you are having side-effects that are really a danger to you.
I hope this helps.
Peace,
Greg> So far, not so great. Granted it has only been 3 days of taking this med. I feel very agitated, unable to focus, irritated, discontent and obssessed.
> I have more energy but it is also wearing me out emotionally and physically.
> What to do? I'm going to ride it out and give it time but my intuition is telling me that this may not be the med. for me.

> I do appreciate eveybody's posts as they give me some perspective and hope.
> Thanks to everybody's suggestions, comments and help.
