Hi Ed
Thanks!I have just finished my first week and was wondering about upping to a third daily dosage or just increasing the two doses I'm on now.
I think the third dose does sound a better option. I'll try 3x .5mg.I didn't mention it but I also found in the first 1/2 of the week that I tipped between a bleak passing depressed state esp upon waking. I think this coincided with the morning drop in NA levels. I also found it returned in the afternoon. At other times my mood swang into overdrive and I felt invincible and overly ambitious- usually around 4hrs of taking the reboxetine.
I have overdone my efforts during my running training this week and I am in a bit of a physical hole today. I think I need to resist the temptation of using the drug as a physical upper as I am sure the body pays for it later!
Over the last couple of days I think my mood hasn't been swinging as much and perhaps this indicates that a dose increase is ok at this stage. Another sign for me was the gradual return of IBS symptoms. I think Reboxetine at the right dose would be v useful for those suffering from this complaint.
From what I have read, Reboxetine is good when your adrenals are a bit burnt out. I am guilty of pushing too hard in general and the panic and SA make me ooze adrenalin. Inbetween the social stresses I have been flat, tired and unable to concentrate.
My only concern is that what happens when you lift the NA by pouring tyrosine and Reboxetine into the system. Is it like taking an upper and will my brain and body flag and cave-in in the future?
Meanwhile...the experiment continues.
