I found it pretty helpful, although it didn't completely get me back to 100% well. Are you using it alone or with an SSRI? I use it along with Lexapro (also Neurontin, Ambien, and Dexedrine). Side-effect-wise I mostly had problems with dry mouth and dizziness upon standing. The higher the dose, the more side effects. However, they weren't so bad that I wanted to stop taking it.
Best,
EE
> I'm currently starting on my first trial of a tricyclic AD. I've tried most SSRI's (and others) with mixed results and after a lot of research decided to give Desipramine a try. I'd be very interested in hearing any experiences people have had with this med.
