My opinion only, but I feel the suggested doses are too high. I would start with 1/4 of the 12mg tabs 3 time per day until they are gone. Then 1/2s of the next size up. While almost all of the clinical studies went right for 100mg doses, I can show you other smaller studies that used only 25mg and got the same good results.

Actually the jittery thing I believe is common. Happened to me too. The norepinephrine effect actually gave me goosebumps and raised the hairs up off my arm. Felt good though. Much better than the blue dumps. In a way it almost has kind of a Ritalin feel to it.

But that is short lived. For me things calmed down by about day 3 and then a rather pronounced anti anxiety pro social thing kicked in. It felt like some feedback loops had kicked in by that point. A couple weeks later anhedonia was a lot less and I wasn't very blue anymore. Just couldn't pee.
