Hope this works for me. I’ve tried so many meds that it can make you afraid to try another. Glad to hear these good reports
Congrats on feeling good :-)
Fairly new on Trintellex myself, first week good second week a couple of wobbles, since then I've actually been OK, I haven't had any nausea and my mood/sleep is definitely better, still a bit anxious at times - no major episodes though, hoping this will continue & also improve (starting week 5 & I've stayed on 5mg).
Best of luck
I have been on it for two weeks and i also think its working good! And very quickly it seems — better than anything i have ever tried before.
I have just started trintellix today but, I am super sensitive to meds to I cut it in half (2.5MG).
Hoping for some relief, as I cannot tolerate other antidepressants!
Is there a trintellix support page anywhere?
Thanks.
Hello im not sure about a support page but im also super sensitive to meds and ive done very well on this medication
Thanks. That is good to hear!
Hi, G! Some people do report significant changes early on in treatment but for some it takes several weeks. You may also be feeling some relief in knowing that you've taken control and are on your way to a happier future. Either way ~ or both ~ keep a positive attitude and enjoy! It's not a fluke and as your medication kicks in you'll feel even better. If the effects seem to fade after a while you have plenty of room to increase your dosage so just stay in close touch with your doctor with your progress.
