Never heard of it or ever tried it. Always back to the anti anxiety. He wants to try clomipramine. He says common side effects are difficulty urinating and "WEIGHT GAIN". He said that is a big problem with this medicine. I don't want to gain anymore weight guys. I am losing weight now. If you see my previous posts I use to be an exotic dancer and model (or stripper whatever you want to call it) and after this X trip and having to go on meds I gained like 80 pounds. Every time I go off meds I start dropping it fast. I go back on a med, I gain weight. So if this one is famous for weight gain, I just know I will gain it all back plus some.
He wants to try this TCA instead of another SSRI because I have pretty much taken every SSRI there is an either have horrible side effects or I don't get enough relief to be worth it. The SNRI Effexor worked the best but still not total relief and I had to quit because my heart was at risk. I had irregular ekg's, irregular heart beats, high blood pressure (through the roof), etc.
Feeling hopeless....
