Trevilor seems to be in Germany what Effexor is in the USA.
Reasons I'm taking it: Possible Adult Attention Deficit Disorder, Impulse Control Weakness (umm, I literally translated that), increasing anxienty over the past year(s), general lack of energy and motivation to DO something.
Dosis: 75 mg once a day.
Anyhow. I'm on it for the second day now, feelin' a little woozy, but energetic. I am concerned about Serotonin Syndrome; and while energetic, I also realize that it might actually be counter-rpoductive, because I had a hard time reading the stuff you are quizzed on for the registration (I actually got up and just turned back at the door before I could leave the house to do something else).
I know that after two days, one can't say anything yet; especially as my previous therapy with Edronax (reboxetine) turned out EXTREMELY nasty physically and emotionally after a few months (but after showing awesome initial results), when the stuff was just wreaking havoc to my mind (I even changed my own name; I really wasn't myself anymore).
Positive effects noticed: Amazingly, I slept very very well this night (somewhat intense dreams, with very faint visions of gore and blood - former girlfriend of mine was on Effexor and had lots of odd, gore-loaded dreams, as well).
More importantly, I woke up at 7:30 and wanted to get up! (gah. my bed was so comfy so I slept another two hours, should have gotten up) Usually, I don't want to get up at all; so that's already a noticeable improvement.- Thygrrr
