Well I'm taking it for anhedonia. I don't need it for tiredness or anything. I was gonna wait till i was done with pristiq, but I didn't sleep well last night so i took some in the morning since I knew I would be tired. I can't say it really had any effect. I never got really tired though and I was atleast awake although stayed in bed since 5:00 AM.
I still got tired at night though. I will take it continually in earnest for anhedonia later on. I'm a bit skeptical and not sure why i bought it now, I don't think I'm a dopamine responder. Its effect on NE, is fairly weak, we'll see what I end up doing. I thought maybe if I felt something from the first dose it might be worth continuing but I'm doubting it will do anything for me. I should have tried a drug that works on NE more since I seemed to respond to that better. I guess this drug is a lot less scarier side effects wise compared to other drugs.
Post-SSRI syndrome: iatrogenic anhedonia, memory and concentration problems, sexual dysfunction. [NOTE no sadness or anxiety]
Weening off pristiq: 50mg every other day.
