For Depression "I am having an awful time, without this nothing works, one month out and I'm anxious, dizzy, having sick spells, and am afraid. I have stroke-like withdrawal symptoms. My world has been turned upside down. Two months ago, I graduated, got a job in my new field, then bam no meds. And I'm afraid I may lose everything I achieved because now I can't even drive my car because of stroke-like panic attacks. Been on this med since 1997, and doing great as a mom, student, grandmother, and sole person of my family."

For Anxiety "I have taken this drug for many years. I’ve tried many others before, and all they did was cause dizziness or more anxiety for me. When they took this off the market, I struggled to live my life normally. I have not been the same! When I found out that they were manufacturing it again, I was so relieved! I just had my doctor fill it for me, and I am a happy camper. I had agoraphobia for 7 years before they put me on nefazodone. I can’t begin to tell you what I went through with two young children to take care of. But I found a self-help group, and this medication saved my life!"

For Depression "I had high hopes for this med based on reviews and pharmacological profile; however, I was unable to get through the initiation period. It felt as if I was very intoxicated with a bad hangover at the same time: dizziness, blurred vision, unsteady gait with stumbling and falling, horrible stomach cramping, and dry heaving with a migraine. I started at 100 mg at bedtime, and as the days went on, the side effects progressed. I also felt more depressed, but who wouldn't, being unable to function? I wish it had worked out better. Everyone is different. My advice would be, if you experience side effects of the nature I did, I would discontinue and save yourself from dealing with them being much worse. Otherwise, give it a try!"
