Thanks for the encouragement! Having energy and motivation have been the biggest changes in me, too. Before I started Emsam, I was not leaving my house (except to get groceries) and was not socializing at all. I was barely getting any housework done. Now, I have joined weight watchers, have contacted old friends and had lunch with them, and have clean my house by getting rid of old junk that had been laying around for years. This change must be from the emsam because there is no other explaination for it. The depression is still lingering a little, but because I am getting out of the house more, it is helping me to feel less depressed. If anyone is considering this med, I think it's worth at least giving it a try.
It is harder to sleep on emsam, but there are medications such as trazodone or klonipin that will help with that.
