Hi all, I have to let you know that I am feeling really good on this drug, the best I have felt in a long time. I have major depression and GAD with all the obsessional thinking that goes with it. All of it is for now at least, is laying pretty low. The only side effect I am having is vivid dreams and night sweats. I think I am virtually side effect free because I went through all of the usual with strattera, for a long time too. I bet it took a few months to adjust to it. So my body is used to norepinephrine reuptake. I have discontinued the strattera, prozac and even the very low dose of klonopin I was taking. I have been able to cut the provigil dose in half. I still take 10mg of buspar twice a day. But this is fabulous for me. I bet it has been two years since I have been free from residual depression and some pretty high anxiety. I took 30 mg for one week and have been on 60mg for 3 1/2 weeks. Just this week have I known that this drug is going to work for me, for awhile anyway. Just wanted to pass on some hope, hang in there, it may work well for all of you too once you get used to the norepinephrine.
I forgot to say the sexual deadness is better. I forgot to include it as a side effect since it has become such a fact of life for me for so long now.
