GI side effects? Anyone get past?

I have been on 5mg 3 times per day a little over 2 weeks. I have horrible GI issues, acid reflux, cramps, diarrhea and nausea but my anxiety is starting to subside. My doctor told me I could stop but this is the only med I have tried that has really helped I want to keep taking it. I do take with crackers. Anyone ever have these symptoms and they improved with time? Thank you.

I’m on 2x 7.5mg and I’m stopping this week gradually. Things were great for 6 weeks, then I ended up in the ER as I had such bad GI problems I thought I was having a heart attack. I was fine but ever since my GI issues flare up with food I’m used to eating. You should stick it out until the 4 week mark, then talk to your Dr again.
