Watcha Col,
I've been on reboxetine for a good few months now. I started taking it whilst I was on 300mg Surmontil. It was a very, very disturbing experience - I couldn't stop thinking of suicide for about 2 weeks. These days I can't believe I put up with it. It was partly because my pdoc is of the attitude "A/Ds make you less depressed, not more depressed" - what a tw*t.
Anyway, I got through that and the suicidal thinking relented. I think it's helping me although I'm not sure - it's that classic case where you don't know what you'd be like on no meds. I don't get any notable side effects from it these days apart from pretty severe constipation - lovely. The first 2 weeks I got headaches, dry mouth and that sort of standard stuff.
Errr, hope this helps in some way, good luck,
pete.
