Hmm...a lot of interesting posts here--and positive responses to the med.

I wasn't on it very long--only about 7 days. For me the surprisingly intense drowsiness, physical weakness, and cognitive effects are really pretty hard to live with, even in the short term. I take Tianeptine (3x 12.5mg/day), by the way, as another part of my regimen, along with methylphenidate 18mg, on some days.

Still, I have been feeling pretty well (slightly elevated mood) now that the drug is 'more or less out of my system.' Except that with a 75-90 hour half-life, a small amount would still be there (I only stopped it about five days ago). Perhaps the med will actually be useful in very small doses--2 or 2.5mg every two days actually sounds like a decent idea. Once I let the substance taper down, I may even try that. I'll keep you people informed. Maybe, just maybe, it will help some after all.
