>Hi Jah,
I started taking Mirapex 5 weeks ago because of Risperdal poop- out. I can't tell you when I started to feel better but it was pretty rapid. I started at a very low dose and it made me extremely sleepy initially.
At 1.4 mg a day I feel like a new person. I have increase energy and the desire to do things which I have not experienced in years! I almost feel " normal", if you know what I mean.
I used to have social phobia where I never left my house UNLESS it was a necessity now I actually like going out.I went without it for a week and fell back into depression-- big time.
I'm embarassed to admit this but I'm not too sure what cognitive dysfunction?
Yes, Mirapex has helped with anhedonia.
It did make me initially nauseous, other than that no side- effects.
This is just my experience hope it helps.
