Compared to the SSRIs, tricyclics, APs, and MAOIs, it is very benign. It is weight-neutral and, if anything, pro-sexual. It is used In Europe for treatment of some forms of.impotence.I found it killed my sex drive and gave me the same type of headaches SSRIS give me. Very mellowing, but not useful when treating anhedonia, in my experience.

it's fascinating how different people's reactions are. I definitely notice the dreamy state you describe. I attributed it to it's anxiolytic effect. I do notice more dreams about sex.
Because there are apparently so many beneficial effects on the brain, I was hoping and planning to take it long-term.

This is an interesting thread. As twinleaf said, the variety of response is interesting. Lots of collective knowledge here.
I'm going to do some research on the beneficial effects. Maybe pitch it to my pdoc as an add-on. Anxiety is a big issue for me. (And I'm not sure that cymbalta alone will address mood.)
I appreciate you all sharing your
experiences.fb

He who knows when enough is enough will always be able to avoid misfortune, according to the Tao Te Ching.
I don't know what it means, PJ. It's some computer substitute word thing.
I'm doing this from Japan and that is how it works from here.

Raquo is a type of HTML coding that is used when creating a blog etc So the Japenese computer is picking up up the << as raquo html coding. You would be better off just typing in the person's name.
Take care!

I started Tianeptin a couple of months ago and have stayed at a 20 mg./day and am not feeling enough better. Lots of anxiety, very spacey periods but more stability and functioning better. I'm wondering about combining it with prozac or trazedone. Anybody have any experience with that? Or know of a good resource for researching that?
