Hi Dreamann,
Mishal here.
> Ive got trivastal in the mail for my next trial and so was wondering if you could give some final remarks about your experience with it.
Only good things about Trivastal.
> Specifically I was wondering if you could explain why you got off trivastal.
Some people on the board scared the hell out of me. That made me look unto this med very pessimistically.
> Did you end up having any side effects besides sleeping less?
No. In fact taking it in the morning time lessened the sleeping troubles.
> Did you get off because the good effects were lessoning? I was wondering if you noticed any tolerance during the short time you were on it?
Not at all. The effects sustained. There never was a tolerance issue.
> Any problems now that your off of it...more tired during the day?
Not either.
> Also were you getting it prescribed or did you take it on your own?
I made my doc prescribed it to me.
> Have you had experience with stimulants, wellbutrin, or any other dopamine enhancing meds? If so what was your experience with them so I can compare.I have taken Wellbutrin but didn't like the effect. Parlodel another dopaminergic was too much for me to tolerate.
Trivastal is unique in all its aspects. I can't compare its effect to any other med.> my description: chronic fatigue, ADD inattentive type, lack of motivation, anhedonia,
Then I am sure you are going to be tremendously helped with Trivastal. When I was on Trivastal, I could find pleasure even in the simplest things. But anhedonia is slowly returning after going off it.
Hope this helps
