Emsam has a mean weight loss of 1.2 lbs a month? Unbelievable-I'll be gaining that much a day if I can't stop the nighttime eating, and believe me, I DON'T need to gain!!! 6:40 am-still up. The thing is, I was suspicious of Emsam before I even started because I knew it was only tested on people with depression and no anxiety-a rare, highly selected group with probably purely biological depression. Yet some of the people at Psychobabble who have had luck with Emsam have been those with primarily social anxiety. I have plenty of social anxiety, but I've never understood in the least how any med can actually help with that-even if it somehow makes you less inhibited, so what, it doesn't change your basic personality, if people don't like you they'll like you even less and you'll have more things to hate yourself about. Just my insomniac rantings..... Cecilia
