For Insomnia "I have been taking Endep 10 for approximately 3 weeks and have used a variety of sleeping meds. Endep is the best by far. I take it 3 hours prior to sleep and have no problems getting to sleep, and if I do wake during the night, I go back to sleep straight away. It can make me a little drowsy in the morning, but nothing like other meds."

For Insomnia "Been on Endep 10mg for 4 weeks. For insomnia. Although it helps me sleep, the longer I take it, the dopier I get during the day. I feel like I am permanently sedated, like my brain is shrinking and my head is full of cotton wool all day. No motivation to do anything."

For Insomnia "I took Endep 25 for headaches. I felt drowsy even the next day, so I went to Endep 10. I need to take it about 2 hours before sleep. Side effect - ear noise, which has been going on for over 1 week now after 1 tablet. I'm going to stop it for a while due to the side effect."

For Anxiety and Stress "Been taking it for 6 years, initially for depression, then anxiety and stress, and it's one of the worst things to happen to me. Constant eczema where my skin gets very itchy and sore, that I have scars all over. Constipation is probably the worst, as I've had periods of vomiting, my stomach being sore and bloated, blurred vision. It's addictive, contrary to what doctors say, as I have been trying to get off it for 2 years slowly and have been admitted to the hospital twice in that time for substance abuse relating to Endep. Doctors can't understand why I have been on it for so long. Take mine at night as you get drowsy during the day on higher than 50 mg (the most I took was 75 mg), now on 10 mg and still get constipation."

For Fibromyalgia "Endep had a very quick effect and eliminated the muscular pain that I have suffered for more than ten years. I do feel drowsy, it seems to have a calming effect on me and I sleep amazingly well."
