"this medicine... i feel like there is something wrong with it. 
the first three weeks, i was nauseous all the time. i did have a feeling of euphoria for the first couple of weeks despite the sickness. 
the weirdest side effects were the loss of taste and smell.  seriously weird. i couldn&#039;t smell any odor at all and as for taste? nothing.  i could eat jalapenos straight out of the jar like they were m&amp;m&#039;s. it was crazy!!! 

i finally stopped taking it. i was still anxious and found myself to be listless and tired, so why bother? besides the symptoms were too much to deal with.

i have been off trintellix for almost 3 weeks now. i&#039;d say that my ability to taste and smell are still at 25%.  i&#039;m worried that they will never come back."
