I was on it for only 3 weeks. I went off because of the side effects - well, mainly just one side effect, and that was that I could not pee. It would be like, I'd go hours and hours of having to go and I simply couldn't. Finally I'd be able to, but I started imagining that I'd have to go to the ER for a catheter or something.
Anyways, I think it is more stimulating than nortriptylene, another TCA. I think that the weight gain is supposed to be less of a problem too, but there is still that possibilitity. I think that I took it 2x/day, but it might have just been once. I can't remember.
Good luck if you decide to try it!
