Hi missmolly, sorry to hear you have HD. I think you are doing the right thing in finding out what you can about a medication before taking it.
Of course I don't know much about HD, but if it involves atrophy of the hippocampus, and likely future depression, then I can certainly understand why Tianeptine was prescribed. According to Servier, Tianeptine does more neural regeneration than other ADs. Have you checked out Servier's website for the science behind Tianeptine?
As far as side effects go, a lot of people experience vivid dreaming. I do too, but I don't find this a major problem. This is probably the only side effect you can pretty much count on getting. Other side effects are individual. Some people don't notice any. Since you've already read my posts, you are already familiar with my own experiences.
Take care, Trotter.
