Hello, Danielle! How are you?

After 10 years, it may be that your body has just grown tolerant to this dosage, which could explain why you're feeling some withdrawal effects, as if you missed a pill. The U.S. FDA lists other as possibly including rebound depression, anxiety, chills, and diarrhea.

It may be time for a dosage adjustment, or you may need to try an entirely different medication.

Is there anything else I can help with?
