At least I know I'm not the only one who had a bad side effect from this drug. I started taking it 4 months ago, and took it for 3 days, and then I told my doctor that I wouldn't take it anymore. It wasn't that I was tired exactly, but unable to move. It was like something sucked all the energy out of me. It was an extreme hardship to get off the couch, or walk to the kitchen, bathroom, etc.
One time during those 3 days, I was sitting on the floor putting food in my rats' cage. My bf was sitting a few feet away playing a video game. I turned around and tried to stand up, but I couldn't. I just sat there and stared across the room, concentrating on how I was going to get up, and I did that for about 5-10 minutes. My bf said, "What are you staring at?" I said, "Nothing, I'm just trying to stand up, but I don't think I can."
Eventually, I made my way back to the couch. I have never felt that way before, and it was really freaky. It was like there were weights holding me down and I could hardly move at all, and everyone thought I was just being lazy or overreacting. Has this happened to ANYONE but me?
