> Hi folks,
>
> I have been taking Savella for about 8 weeks and don't know what to do. It has definitely diminished the sadness but now I'm angry all the time. I hate it. I lose my temper so quickly and seem to be even be bothered by the sound of my husband's voice to the point that I have to tell him to stop talking.
> Also, my blood pressure which has never ever been on the high side was 138 over 87 which is super high for me. I do have a lot more energy but at what cost? I start school in 3 weeks and need to decide if I want to go on Emsam or continue with this med and see if this bad mood from eternal hell subsides. What do you guys think is going on? I really need help. Can't keep on yelling all day.
> ihatedrugsthe anger/irritability sound like norepinephrine talking.
I had this reaction to desipramine. It lessened a bit after 3 months but never really went away.
I couldn't stand it.
