> I gave Manalcipran a try. You are going through exactly the same side effects I had. All the literature on this med says its the least likely to cause sexual disfunction. Nothing could be further from the truth! It takes about a week for the ED to kick in and if you stop Minalcipran suddenly, you have to wait almost a month to get normal function again. I had the same wonderful relief from depression you described about a week after starting it, somewhere around the 50-75mg range. Another good effect I got, (you didnt seem to get this) was I had the most natural, deepest and refreshing sleep. The best sleep I have had in decades.

> It's Amazing that you mentioned trying Tiameptine next. That was exactly what I did. I tried Stablon right away. I discontinued Stablon (tianeptine), because I was terrified to sleep. Every night I got a horrific nightmare. Any other questions you might have about the 2 medications mentioned meds let me know. Good luck!

I should have mentioned sleep - yes the sleep quality is really good - but since the past one week - I have experienced excessive sleepiness - a good 8 hours of sleep does not seem enough - I have almost 3-4 hours of naps after I wake up and feel sleepy through the day. This is strange given that it occured during the 5th week.

Also I have developed shortness of breath in the past 2-3 days.

It appears that your experience on Tianeptine is not a good one. Would you totally NOT recommend it to anyone?
