How did you get to 15mg and only had it working for 2 weeks? The starting dose is 2.5mg and it takes many months to titrate up to 15mg. Most people never get to 15mg. I've read hundreds of anecdotal experiences from people on these dru

I really miss the Chromebook Pixel / Pixelbook / whatever it was called. It was my travel laptop for at least 5 years. It was expensive, but the quality, performance, and durability was top tier. And it lasted 5+ years. The Pixelb
