Thanks for posting your experience sukarno & others!
I tried tianeptine recently as I have had very negative experiences with the usual SSRI and SNRI's. My impression was that it was helpful in a mild way. I didn't take more than 3x12.5 mg/day -- perhaps that wasn't enough.
I have been taking Lamictal (200 mg/day) for a couple of years and I wondered if that might mask the tianeptine's effect -- it seemed to interfere with Buspar, which used to work well for me at one time. In any case, with my p/doc's OK, I've stopped the tianeptine temporarily and am tapering off the Lamictal so I can get a clear baseline and try the tianeptine again.
