omg im so trying to keep going here, but im so out of omg. like i just wanna sleep all day. i have eaten twice today, and took my fish oil supplements and flax seed pills. i have been cleaning the house and trying to get my mind on things that i need to do. but man this is kicking my butt.

does anybody else battle depression like this with these pills??

its like i need a bunch of caffeine to wake up!

I'm sorry that you are having such a hard time. I am fortunate enough that this has not been a real issue for me. Could you possibly try a lower doseage?

you think a lower dose would help and i could still loose weight? i was wondering if i could cut them in half and take them at 2 different times a day.

Nikki, do you take an anti-anxiety medicine?

Nikki i am taking 30 mg and it works

i dont take anti anxiety meds. the only thing im taking is the phen and the fish and flax seed oil capsules. this is crazy, all i have wanted to do the last few days is sleep. i drank some diet cherry pepsi today and that helped keep me awake. this is really odd. i thought maybe if i cut these apart and tried to take it in the morning and afternoon. i havent taken off anymore weight yet, but its only day 2 of the second week. im really getting worried here.

I think you are on the 37.5 mg, aren't you? If you are, definately try taking just the 1/2 dose in the morning. If you find that makes you fight your appetite later in the day, add in the other 1/2 at noontime. But with your side effects, I would definately try taking just the 1/2 first. You still should have good results.

Hi, I think you should do a half a dose also.
