I know the side effects I read online show that mood and depression issues for this drug are supposed to be minimal ... less than 1% ... but mood issues seem more prominent on this med when I move up to the 16mg level. 8mg is almost tolerable. Clarity and drive are also an issue when I move up to the 16mg. Anyone else run into this? I am trying to Zone Diet to see if there is any way to deal with hypertension outside of the pharmecutical approach. Please help me find a solution to BP that does not put my emotions into a spin.
