I was on Desipramine a (TCA). It inhibits the reuptake of noreoinephrine, serotonin and to a lesser extent dopamine. I guess I was on a pretty high level--don't remember now--but it can mess with your blood pressure. I nearly passed out a few times. I had to give it a try but didn't stay on it to long. Good Luck.
Well over the past 8 years, since my first panic attack and ensuing depressive problems the Doctors have tried SSRI's, SNRI's, Benzos, Mood Stabilizers and even Seroquel at one point, thats why I have been on the Mirtazipine. Now that I'm still having issues and I sleep for 15 hours a day and I weigh more now than ever in my life, were going to try Tricyclic antidepressants. So another round of the human guinea pig.
I actually pretty excited. I started reading about it and what He mentioned was called the gold standard for depression AND Panic! YES PANIC! Wow if This works! I may be driving! Maybe start DOING L I F E, that spells life! So now its weaning off, then starting.
