Just wanted to drop a post on my current experience with Nefazodone. I am up to 400mg once daily, and am continuing to feel far improved. Negative thoughts were constantly running through my head like a mouse in a wheel, but I feel like the volume has been turned down big time. I am much more calm, anxious worrisome thoughts have dissipated, and overall thinking much clearer. I don't feel overly good, or manic , I feel like I have been lifted up to normalcy. Starting to rethink old goals, and clean up the mess I have made for myself while being an anxious depressive. I have put just a touch of lamictal in to the mix, 25mg, for now, to keep my mood constant.
For side effects, I am experiencing tinnitus, but not too bad that its much of a bother. Moderate insomnia, and I still have some hives and itching on my upper legs/thighs. But that's been an issue for about a year, and has been an issue with numerous meds. Might be from stress, or reaction to meds. Going to address it with doctor on next visit.
Best of luck to you all currently struggling. Can't get to heaven without passing through hell.
