17 Jul 2011 This drug at 20mg had no effect on me. I sunk deeper into a depression and lost my job and career. I found St. John's Wort Liquid Tincture to be more effective. I also started getting Muscle Spasms on the left hand side of my face; it fealt like I was having a Stroke. I was left feeling suicidal for about 4 months.
