I've taken it. Never been on a cycle so I can't comment on that one.
Like most drugs, it did not do anything noticeable for me and I was on it for months. The only drug that has really ever done something for me was a combo of Wellbutrin, which is for depression, and Depakote, which helps keep your moods in check.
Unfortunately the affects eventually wore off and I was back to feeling like my old self after about a year or so. I've been off both for a while and am going to try the Wellbutrin again soon. I'd rather not try the Depakote out if I can because it reaks havoc on your liver.
I've been following your posts and hope you can find something to help cure/curb your anxiety/depression.
