psihobot, thanks for the tips!This is day four and besides nervousness and weakness which persist, I think I'm experiencing some kind o derealization,a lack of feelings reminding me of neuroleptics which i've tried in the past to augument some of the antidepressants i've taken.I'm pretty shure that Tian takes the edge of the feelings, makes me robotically, which makes one of the cons for me.Maybe it's too early to give an verdict, but in my case i'm not shure it works.Another thing is that i'm taking it with 400 mg carbamazepine retard and 2 mg klonopin in the evening (for sleeping problems) which i hope doesn't counteract it's effect.I can't give up on klono and carbamazepine, because it's the only relatively free side effects combo for an 7-8 hours sleep.We'll see; i'll stick with tianeptine for another week hoping it will kick up and do a good job for my messy brain.Anyway, beeing from eastern europe, here's an often prescribed AD with very good results;I know a lot of people being and remaining euthimic on it.I spoke with an Pdoc who told me that besides the very low adverse reactions profile, Tianeptine posesses an anti-manic properties.I've never wrote about this properties, but I tend to beleive him.I'm unipolar, so I cannot certify this, but it seems that a lot of BP people can reduce(or give up)on their antimanic medication while they're on Tianeptine.
