Well after 2 years I am sick of the brain fog and memory issues. I went back to study and it really affected me. I am off it now for last 4 days. Pain came back so bad by Day 2 I was going to go back on, However, am back on pain meds anti inflammatory Eg disprin occasionally, helps relax muscles, Panadol, voltaren gel, See how I go, Read someone's post they only take it 3 or 4 times a week, so might try that | F | 62 | 2 years 10 1X day | 11/1/2022 | 4 | Anxiety & sleep | At first I slept all night but it started having no effect after 2 months. I was waking up feeling a bit dazed but it goes away in a few hours and I feel great after that. | All I can suggest is start on a low dose and raise it a week at a time. Side effects do go away in a month or so | M | 57 | 4 months 25 1X day | 8/30/2022 | 2 | Back pain and sleep | Worked for sleep until 3 days ago diarrhoea, phlegm build up in throat causing a cough and dry reaching, vision very blurry panic attacks and suicide thoughts | F | 63 | 5 months 10 mg 1X day | 1/2/2021 | 5 | Migraines and neck and back pain | Dry mouth | I have found endep 10mg a life saver. No more migraines and neck pain. Back pain reduced. | F | 69 | 2 months 10mg 1X day | 11/8/2020 | 3 | Chronic back pain & insomnia | Brain fog, lethargy and mild anxiety | Dr recommend Endep at 10mg once daily to (1) help with managing neuropathic pain from chronic back problems and associated rehab activity, and (2) for long term insomnia from back pain. Found the medication effective in reducing severity of nerve pain and helped with getting to sleep and duration of sleep. However, the day after effects are significant. Low mood, anxiety and bouts of extreme tiredness have become daily issues. Hoping these reduce as I need to continue taking this medication while I go through intensive rehabilitation for my back. | M | 48 | 7 days 10MG 1X day | 10/25/2020 | 4 | Depression | Dry mouth | The best anti depressant I’ve ever taken and I have been on anti depressants since I was 27. SSRI’s only caused insomnia and loss of libido. I would never touch SSRI’s. Horrible. I gave Endep a score of 4 because the only side effect was an extremely dry mouth. It also made me sleep as soon as hit the pillow. No problems with sex drive or orgasms. | F | 61 | 2 days 150 1X day | 9/6/2020 | 5 | PTSD. insomnia.
