Anxiety attacks and quick bursts of extreme anger. They stopped as I began to taper my dosage.

I unfortunately have not been able to come off I've been on it for 12 years constantly I can't seem to get past 20 milligrams as far as tapering off. It does make you have terrible mood swings, dry mouth, and eating and weight gain.
