This is maybe the "dirtiest" antidepressant out there. Not a bad thing. It just means it hits a lot of different receptors and stuff, not very targeted. That gives it the potential to work a little better than most, but also gives it a heavier side effect profile than most.

My only experience with it lasted 3 days. It was just way too strong for me even at a tiny dose.

My problem the whole time was Lyme anyway - probably most people here too - so it would not have helped much anyway even if I had tolerated it. None of these drugs do much against the causes of depression which are toxicity, inflammation, and stealth infections (the 3 go together).

When it comes to drug treatment of depression, I have no idea why they mess around with serotonin. Real authentic mood improvement happens with dopamine and/or norepinephrine. First line treatment should be a baby dose of prozac with an adult dose of Ritalin. We would see a whole lot less treatment resistant patients if they started that way instead of with solo SSRIs.

In my opinion.
