can you compare it to S/NRIs like effexor or desipramine (if you've tried it)? As powerful? more/less "serotonin-like" (e.g., reduction of obsessions, positive self-esteem, optimism)?
My dr. is not sure about tianeptine and moved me from effexor to desipramine, but I can most definitely feel the lack of serotonin-related action, so i'm looking for something that works on serotonin system without being a SSRI and i'm not quite willing to do an oral MAOI (Emsam gave me terrible anxiety and made me a little too smart for my own good, to say nothing of the sleep disturbances).
