> Well, I'm still experimenting-yesterday I cut off half the patch at bedtime and then put on a whole new patch when I got up. The Emsam folks would have a cow if they knew how many of us are experimenting with cutting patches when their drug insert says not to. (Of course I'm sure the main reason they wrote that was because they definitely don't want people saving money by cutting 40 mg patches in half to get a 2 month supply for the price of one.) All the Emsam reps reading this-we're depressed, not dumb!Emsam definitely makes me irritable, but how do you determine if that's an effect of the drug itself or the lack of sleep it causes? Cecilia

I don't know. Lack of sleep does not cause me irritiblity so much. I feel dumbed down, in slow motion. I suspect the irritabilty effect may relate to increased dopamine. I feel stuff like: Go ahead, get with it, Your're wasting my time. Plus increased libido.
