Experiences?
Did you like it? Did you hate it? Did it help your depression? Right now I'm being switched to it from sertraline since sertraline **** out on me. Thanks.

Was hell coming off of it. Was one of the only antidepressants that i could take with my bipolar. I was on it for years and I loved it. It was very helpful.

I tried it for a short period of time. It was neither negative or positive for me. Hope you have better luck with it.

It gave me irritable hypomania. I wasn't on it long.

Thanks for the replies!
So far it's helping my mood. I was severely depressed before put on it, and now I'm not anymore. And the only side effect I've had so far is dry mouth. Did it cause weight gain for anyone?

My mom recently started taking it and made a huge improvement in her whole attitude and energy level.
I take it, not sure how much it helps with depression or physical pain, but at least it has no sexual side effects. I am taking Lyrica, too, now and need to lose weight now for the first time in my life. Really put on some weight.

It seems to give me more energy as well as possibly helping with fibro pain. I haven't noticed it causing weight gain.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
