Hi Paul

I really appreciate your taking the time to post about your experience.

Like you I had to back down on my dose initially - I had bad headaches - but I crept it up to the 3 a day gradually and all side effects went away.

I'm currently keeping a mood graph to compare the amount of depression I get on Stablon to the amount I had without it. I will be pleased to have even a partial response as my problems have been very severe and very long term. I don't expect a miracle from just the one medicine although of course it would be nice.

At the moment I am on 4 tablets a day; I increased it from 3 six days ago and I am not too bad right now.

Like you I also could imagine continuing to increase the dose if it wasn't so expensive. I think I may feel better in the 2 or so hours after a dose but this could be just psychological. I also might be tempted to keep increasing the dose in the hope of a more complete response generally.

Overall I do have high hopes for some restoration of neuroplasticity - as per the pleasantly optimistic story on the drug company website. It's nice to have that vision in the back of my mind even if it is just a fairy tale. (And I really would prefer if no one jumped in to post about any inaccuracies (large or small)in that story please.)


Good luck to you also and I hope your positive results continue
