Barr's generic: increased my depression significantly after about two weeks. Each day, I could feel it "kick in", and I could detect it coming down. I was very moody as it wore off, prone to mood crashes. It made me feel beyond caffinated if I took on empty stomache. On the other hand, the Shire NEVER made me feel "stimulated", even on an empty stomache, and I could never even detect it as it wore off. It helped my mood significantly (along with Emsam), and I never ever EVER felt like I was "on" something when I used it- unlike with the Barr. Just a nice augmentor to Emsam, no peaks or valleys, no mood swings, no jitteryness whatsoever. Night and day difference! As if it wasn't even the same drug or even close.
