Elizabeth - I know you've tried several of the MAOI's so I hope you'll offer your opinion on this:
The only AD's I've ever responded to were Nardil (best I've ever felt) and, to a lesser degree, Marplan; but I can't tolerate them physically (severe edema, almost total shutdown of my bowels and bladder, etc., etc.)
Remeron is the only AD I've never tried and I've been staring at the newly filled script bottle for over a week now, dreading the sedation almost as much as I do my depression/dysthymia/anxiety.
My question: *If* I'm able to overcome the sedation by taking high doses of Remeron, do you think it's possible to achieve some of the benefits I enjoyed with Nardil? (Tough question, I know, but could you give it your best shot?)
