I took Lyrical for around 12 months but found it mostly ineffective for my GAD and panic disorder. It had some effect to start with but this did fade after a short period of time. I ended up taking 600mg per day.

I didn't notice any weight gain while taking it, although I did experience strange and vivid dreams. I also did get some forgetfulness but nothing as severe as your experience by the sound of it! I also didn't experience any problems withdrawing from it (my doc tapered the dose).

I don't think I'd try it again as it just wasn't effective for me.
