I've heard that it is rare. Although, I have become depressed from it after taking it each day. A few hours in I feel a little weird, and then I think bad thoughts I would never normally think of, say, my girlfriend cheating on me. I would always think negative thoughts and it really effected me. I would not want to do anything, I was sad and angry. I highly suggest either switching medication or stop the use of them completely.

In cases such as mine and quite a few people i know it does cause depression, about an hour or two after taking my meds i start to feel drowsy and i cant really smile and i don't talk much most people notice this difference as im usually quite a happy hyper person, i would advise anyone who considered taking it not to, and also although it is amazing for reducing your apetite i wouldn't take it just to lose weight as i have done in the past.
