I'm 19, and I've been taking it for four years to help with my allergies/asthma. I've suffered from depression, thoughts of suicide and have seen a therapist. My parents couldn't understand how I had gone from such a happy person to someone so miserable. I'm in college and in the beginning of the semester I was running low on the medication. I decided to stop taking it, because I had been feeling fine and when my mom called me to tell me about the medication I told her, "Mom, I stopped taking it and I've been feeling great." I will never take it again, I'm going home to see my doctor to get something new prescribed. I was miserable, short tempered, and emotional for four years; no one could figure out what was wrong because I didn't know myself. I'm more motivated and willing to help people and be a part of my family, for so long I shut others out and wanted to be alone. I've been off the medication for a couple of months and I'm starting to feel better. It's hard now that my allergies are acting up and I'm tempted to take the medication, but I'm chucking it in the trash. I can deal with the wheezing, scratchy throat, and runny nose for a while; it seems such a small price to pay.
