I had no idea I had ADD until I started this drug and read about other effects it has. I was able to get a B.A. at a university and a good job. I still have problems with housekeeping (which goes with ADD) but hav ... Show Full Comment

I still have problems with housekeeping (which goes with ADD) but have been very happy with the drug overall.

I have been taking toffranil for 36 years with about a 2 year break in the middle. During the two years depression slowly returned and I restarted the medication. It has been so effective I have never had an instance of depression on the medication. I originally was on 25Mg/day but after time upped this to 50Mg. I have no side effects and it has allowed me to thrive and excel in life. Only closest friends know of my history but I will gladly share this with anyone showing signs of depression. I can only hope my story can save lives for others and remove the stigma of depression and effective treatment.
