I talked to my therapist (talk therapist) about starting this med yesterday. My neurologist prescribed it. I felt my therapist explained how it works, why and how stopping it down the road works. I told him about all the things I have read and he addressed them specifically. I’m so glad I did that. I feel much more comfortable about it now and will start taking it when I’m ready, which should be soon. I’ve had some improvement in some symptoms and not in others, so I hate to mask those before my next doctor appointment.

Please read online reviews about the complexity of stopping this medication without a very detailed tapering down schedule. Withdrawal can be horrific.
