I am now enterting my third week on emsam. The increased agitation has mellowed some so its tolerable along with my moderate anxiety and major depression. I am doing my best to stay off the benzos as they help me initially and hurt me later on. I am getting some diarrhea now but dont know if that is from the extended release lithium or from the emsam. Either way I am not stopping the emsam as this is the best I have done in terms of side effects ever. So far no improvement in mood but figuring 4-6 weeks for that to take place. Anyone else out there taking emsam that would like to chime in??
