I took it for some weeks. It helped a bit initially--5HT-2c blockade, woo-hoo--but then exacerbated my OCD--5HT-2C blockade, woo-hoo!--and seriously increased my depression--MT receptor agonism, woo-hoo!
My guess is that MT receptor action is also what prevents it from getting good numbers as an antidepressant, but it could just be that 5HT-2C isn't enough on its own. In any case, it was just another disappointment for me. Hard to say whether it would have been useful to anyone in the long term.
