 4  Major Depression and Anxiety This drug is helping me so much! I no longer pick fights with my boyfriend or get mad over stupid things. All of the SSRI drugs helped a little but I was tired all the time and would sleep 12 hours with no relief. I then went to Cymbalta which was not for me! It's didn't help my insomnia from my anxiety at all and made it worse!! So, now I'm taking Nefodozone and I'm seeing a huge difference. I sleep better and wake up feeling rested!! I'm just worried because all of this stuff online talking about liver damage and death! Can anyone give me advice? Are you worried about this? F 32 10 days

 5  major depression, anxiety Absolutely none I am taking the generic, nefazadone. I suffered from severe major depression ever since I was a child. I've been on every medicine I can think of, but with side effects that I didn't want to deal with. I would spend hours and hours on the Internet researching meds and I stumbled upon nefazadone.I asked my psy if she would let me try it, and she did.I paired it with my 450 mg of wellbutrin that wasn't working as well as it used to. Nefazadone has been the answer to my prayers. It had controlled my depression, my anxiety and even my social anxiety. I am 100% better than Ive ever been my entire life. We just upped it to 300 mg because I started experiencing tiredness and lack of energy throughout the day.this medicine has saved my life, my relationship with the love of my life and the relationship with my children. I am so much happier, much more at piece with myself and much more sociable than I've ever been in my life. Plus, I have no side effects whatsoever, especially weight gain. I gained 15 lbs while experimenting with other meds and lost all of it after being put on nefazadone, all without dieting or exercising. F 49 7 months

 5  MDD C-PTSD Light traces at first, minor dry mouth Was taking 600mg at bedtime for 6-years. Works great for major depression and severe post-traumatic stress. Unfortunately it stopped working as well and now only on 200mg. All SSRI, SNRI, TCA and others stopped working. ECT, rTMS, Ketamine, Neurofeedback and hospital admissions have not relieved my "Terminal" depression. Who cares if there's a one-in-a- million chance you might get liver damage if you want to die every single day your existing? If something helps the severe depression...take it... I'd cut off a limb if any drug worked even a little bit for me now. F 56 7 years

 4  Insomnia, Fybromyalgia Anxiety I want to turn to you for help on Nefazodone. Many ask one of the participants here, especially from Israel, let share how you can buy Nefazodone and be delivered in Greece, Turkey or Bulgaria? Of course, we will implement a prescription. There is huge interest in this drug in these countries, I am personally of Bulgaria and my doctor advised me to seek nefazodone because previous drug that takes Remeron although very good, stopped working after four years. Interest in Nefazodone in eastern europe is great, many people want to buy it. I beg you, tell me how and where we could buy one??? THANK YOU M 36 1 days

 5  Dysthymia, worsening depression Initially: daytime sleepiness, dry mouth, visual trails, sleep related hallucinations, restless leg, vomiting unless taken with food, forgetfulness. 2+ missed doses: quick temper, feeling "poisoned", intense vomiting, despair, visual trails, nausea for days. Long-term: dry mouth, striking loss of short-term memory, unable to recall many conversations and meetings, restless leg, (sleepiness solved by taking dose before bed). Choice between depression and short-term memory loss; I choose memory loss. Nefazodone gave me back my life. For 7 years have taken 250 to 500 mgs per day along with max dose of Welbutrin. Welbutrin broke my despair, but not the depression. Nefazodone lifted me from depression. Worked up to 500 mgs per day over several months, continued for 2 years, then felt so unreliable and humiliated by loss of short-term memory, slowly backed down to 250 mg per day. My family noticed an improvement in my reliability and some memory. Short- term memory is still quite weak. Within one year of starting Nefazodone felt OK, centered. After settling into 250 mg dose with max dose of Welbutrin, regained interest in activities, regained ability to laugh, feel moments of joy. F 54 7 years

 5  anxiety Felt horrible the first week taking it. Not sure if this was because of the severe anxiety or getting used to the drug (or both). After that, though, I felt amazing.. Like I had my life back! Nefazodone has completely changed my life. Up until the time I was taking it 9 years ago, I dealt with anxiety disorder and light depression. This drug TOTALLY changed all that. I've been able to thrive and function and not worry at all about having attacks.. It is hard to get at times so I've had to shop online a few times but now Teva labs in ISRAEL is making it and selling it. M 45 9 years

 2  depression/ anxity The original dose of 50 mg was to strong so my Dr. dropped it down to 25 mg. Even on this dose I had negative side effects. I felt like someone poured rubbing alcohol on me and then put me next to a fan. NO motivation to do anything, Mind really dulled, and even my teeth felt weird. Sticking it out for a week to see if side effects lessen. F 34 2 days

Live in the U.S. and no problems getting it. I have a wonderful career in the medical field. Watch out for drug interactions. No liver problems. I get LFT annually. F 53 14 years

 1  Depression This drug was HORRIBLE for me, it ruined my life! Before this, I was highly intelligent, with a near-photographic memory. But my mind was so fuzzy on this drug that, when playing Scrabble with friends, I literally had to use a calculator when I was the scorekeeper! (Before this, I could literally multiply three 5-digit numbers in my head with ease.) I lost memory function on this med, and also lost actual memories. I've still never recovered, and find everything so much more difficult than it used to be. Plus, for the last month of taking it, I would get sudden, agonizing pain in my head that felt like an axe hitting me. Sooo glad this evil garbage is off the market! F 39 4 months
