Well, something like remission, but I'm sceptical about remission, just like I am about depression.
But what I was trying to say was that tianeptine worked well for me for 3 months before I got a tolerance, which I guess is what people mean by poopout. It still works, but it's not the same either.
That 3 month period was really useful to me.
Now I could keep on increasing the dose, but I think that's unwise (biochemically) and I don't want to end up like that bloke who took a hundred a day.
I started on 2 tablets a day and I should really have stayed on that longer, but it made me feel so very much better.
I'm just saying that relief is rare and precious and it is best to make it last.
I use Valium with tianeptine, the smallest amount possible, currently around 10mg/d.
