The side effects are pretty bothersome with a buzzed feeling in the head and irritable and moody a lot of the time. Constipation is horrible (worse than with Nortriptyline) and no real improvement in mood.
I thought about cutting down to 75mg. a day and see how I do on that but 100 is definitely a no go for me.
Thanks!
