Major Depressive Disorde
"I have had 7 major depressions over the past 12 years. Each one lasted about 5 months and I have previously treated this with Effexor but the doses escalated to 525mg so needed to try something new. Started on 10mg Brintellix about 5 weeks ago. Nausea went after 4 days and mood improved after 2 weeks. Unfortunately my mood started to deteriorate again at about week 4 so I increased the dose to 20mg. Had to go through the whole nausea/tiredness again for 4 days. After a week on this dose things have again improved so I&#039;m hopeful that this will continue. This is the first time something has worked so quickly and effectively for me. Hang in there with the side effects - it&#039;s worth it."
