Day 5 was by far my best since starting EMSAM. I felt significantly better than I have for probably years. As the day wore on I wondered if it was that both MAOI-A and MAOI-B effects were starting to kick in. Just know that I haven't been so upbeat (not manic), clear headed "normal" in a long time.
As far as sleep goes insomnia hasn't been an issue for me to this point. In fact, when I got home from work I lied down for a moment and ended up taking a quick nap, then got up, watched a baseball game on tv wound down and got a good nights sleep.
Side effects yesterday, none (again, I'm super sensitive to them). I feel like I'm a broken record here, but by far the best start to any med I've tried. Prior to EMSAM I was begining to doubt any of these anti depressants really worked enough to justify the side effects, at least for me (though I've never tried an MAOI before).
My concern in posting is that this is just my experience, everyone is different. I hope everyone who tries it has the response I'm having. And of course being only my 6th day really isn't enough time to judge, but damn, I couldn't have asked for a better start.
I'm really looking forward to seeing posts from those of you who giving it a try.
