This might be common, a number of people have written about it including myself. When it stops working or seems to be working less, most people start taking more but with mixed results. This might not make sense now but try taking less, say 2 capsules/day if you are taking 3/day now. Sometimes less is more and you can actually feel better by taking less. If you try this I hope you can post another message and let us know how it's going. After so many years on SJW I thought it stopped working and was even frustrated, but on those days when I forgot to take it I was feeling better. Curious, I started taking less and less, slowly over time, and that did the trick...

Never heard of "stablon" what is it?

Stablon is tianeptine. You can read this:

When sjw effects decreased I started to use it(for a week). I think It is good and working.

It was strangely coincidental that this thread was here when I came here last week. I have been taking SJW for almost a year now and had upped my dosage gradually to 1800mg a day. It seemed to have stopped working a couple weeks ago, and I didn't want to go above that due to little research done on dosages higher than that. I hit a terrible low 10 days ago and felt so depressed that my body physically hurt. Everything I did was an act of labor. I thought I would have to go the prescription route again and deal with the side effects.

So, I read this thread on my lowest day and tried cutting my dose in half. I never would have thought of it. Well, amazingly, that did the trick. Within 2 days, I felt normal again and have felt great since then.

Thank you so much.

I think you are right Kelly. When I continue to take tianeptine(stablon) It made me motivated and feel good for the first weeks. But after that It started to increase my anxiety.Then I tried only one capsule sjw and It worked. I should study and only sjw make my mood usually good and relaxed but not much motivated. I must solve my motivation problem. If I were sure no adverse efect of tianeptine and sjw combination I would try it but I am not. L-tyrosine and sjw combination can work. I will try it.Thanks for your help...

Scapula,

You must be French, and I am too. Stablon® is an antidepressant which is mainly used in France. In fact, my physician proposed it to me, but until now I politely declined the offer. It is based on a molecule called Tianeptine, from the tricyclic family (argh !). Tianeptine is working « the other way around », namely, it acts as a SSRE (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Enhancer), the opposite of a SSRI (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor). The funny thing is that (according to my physician) it appears to be efficient, at least in some cases. Stablon has moderate side effects, preserves cognitive functions, and is often prescribed to the elderly as a « non-aggressive » antidepressant.

No I am not French. I used tianeptine It worked well for my depression and motivation. But I don't think it has moderate side effects. Some researhes say that It is mechanism is like amineptine which is forbidden in a lot of countries. If I were sure about It has no liver effects I would continue to use it. I think that It can be used when we don't use sjw for a few mounths for high serotonin . Because It is a serotonin reuptake enhancer.
