> byehi,
its great to read that this drug is working so well, because i will start to take it the week after next(unipolar depression). i also am very interested in rebox because it is supposedly very good in improving social functioning, an aspect that would also be helpful for me.
i read a lot about side effects, but in general i'm not very sensitive-except sexual dysfunction. i'm really afraid that these will occur again (as with the ssri i tried-sertralin and paroxetin). if they occur with reboxetine, it's supposedly not lack of libido or ejaculatory delay,
but unability to get an erection (would be more problematic i think). do you have any problems in this respect?
