 5  depression & bulimia decreased sex drive I love the stuff! It's almost worth having no interest in sex to have no eating disorder (after 20 years!)and feel energetic and upbeat. Now my doc wants me to stop because of the warnings about liver problems. SIGH. F 54 4 years

MY SEX DRIVE IS BACK!!! this medicine has been great for me..i was on zoloft and wellbutrin sr. but my sex drive was not there at all...dropped the zoloft and added the serzone to wellbutrin, everything is great. yes the first few weeks are hard on this medication..but it is well worth it in the end. M 24 2 months

 3  depression absolutely none I'm not sure this medicine is actually helping my depression, but it does help with the anxiety, insomnia, and nightmares that come with my worst episodes, especially if I take a larger dose at night than during the day. F 27 7 months

 1  major depression Weight gain and fits of anger Weight gain was rapid. Metabolism really slowed down and I slept alot. I also experienced anger or near rage that came out of nowhere. After a couple weeks I was angry all the time. As soon as I quit taking Serzone, the feelings of anger went away. M 49 1 months

 4  depression and panic attacks None whatsoever This medication helped my depression so much, I don't know what I'd have done without it. I probably would have had a nervous breakdown. However, it did nothing for my anxiety and panic attacks, otherwise I'd probably still be on it now. F 24 6 months
7/24/2001
 3  post tramatic stress disorder extreme drowiness. I just started but I am having difficulty functioning. I know after a few weeks it should go away but the effect it has had on me has been tough, especially when you have four kids under the age of eight. F 32 4 days

 3  Depression/Gen. Anxiety Disorder Grogginess, constipation, small light streaks in vision, increased fidgetiness and lack of concentration Although the side effects have been far milder than with Paxil or Wellbutrin (hooray!), it also doesn't work much for me - I don't reach the same depressive lows, but a baseline pessimism is still there, and it worsens my anxiety/OCD symptoms (lack of concentration, inability to sit still). Hope to find something better. But great for insomnia! F 29 5 months

 3  depression & anxiety increased appetite, tracers in vision when awakening or tired, sedating effect, agitation F 49 2 months

 3  severe depression I was so spaced out! I was unaware of my body and broke 5 fingers at 5 different times. I could not focus on reading and was totally unable to read outloud to my son or other children. The words just got scrambleb up. I was also mixing up letters when I spoke and would forget a thought right in the middle of it. Serzone did let me sleep better at night though. It did lift my depression but the side effects were dangerous. No one I have talked to has had similar side effects. I highly recommend it to cure insomnia. F 38 1 months

 5  severe depression since early teens nausea for about 1 hour after taking meds ea day. . .50 mg Serzone helps me have access to myself--couldn't before because the "bottom" was always falling out. The same stuff goes on, it just doesn't matter as much. .ie the "bottom" doesn't always fall ut. F 50 5 years
