    I think it’s actually 39 AUD which works out as £22 ish. However, it used to be free so your doctor may not be aware it charges now so I’d suggest asking the question, and checking whether there’s any alternatives in your area.
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    Completely agree with Paula. Do get an appointment to speak to your Dr - don't just stop the meds please!
    Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!

    Thanks for the reply and don't worry I'm still going to take them I'm just really feeling strange on them, electric shock sensations,I'll see what the doctor says.

    Definitely talk to your GP. It might mean that this med or dosage isn't suited to you.. There's no exact science with this I'm afraid..

    Well from today I've decided to half the 15mg tabs as I run out on Friday and I don't want to pay for another prescription,plus I don't see the doctor until Monday.

    I'm hoping that by taking 7.5mg for a few days it'll be easier than stopping straight away.

    I would urge against changing any dosages or anything without speaking to your Dr...

    Surely you can wait a few days when you’re seeing the doctor?

    Thought I'd update this thread.

    Dr has now put me on Duciltia 30mg which so far haven't upset me although my moods still low.

    I've been trying to work out at home but I'm finding it hard to get motivated.

    Had a letter from work regarding a meeting to check on how I'm doing so that's worried me as there just going to pressure me,and ask why I haven't gone private for counselling.
