I've been on 10mg for about a month now.

It's helped with the thoughts and maybe managing my mood but it's hardly done anything else in comparision with Quetiapine. It's been much easier on me physically in the sense that it's doesn't put a strain on my heart compared with Quetiapine. I have issues with tachycardia and it seems to have helped with that.

I've had no issues with weight gain on it or anything like that, which was part of the reasons I went on it. It did make me feel sick in the beginning but it's fine now. I think it might have increased anxiety levels a little but again it's fine now.
