A few weeks ago, I said that I'd keep everyone posted on the results of my Nardil trial.
And well, I'm rather disappointed to report that I still haven't felt the noticeable "kick in" that most Nardil users tend to feel after four to six weeks of starting the medication. I've been at 60mg for 5 1/2 weeks now, but it's been nine weeks total. After feeling slightly improved during the first two weeks at 60mg (but still mostly depressed and sedated), I fell into a relatively deep depression after that point. I noticed that my level of energy increased slightly about a week or so ago, but it's basically a negative kind of energy. I still have little drive, and I definitely don't feel the least bit "pro-social." It sort of feels like being on Wellbutrin all over again.
So, once again, I've got a few questions...
Has anyone else experienced this at 60mg of Nardil? Do you think that there's still a realistic chance that it might kick in at this dose? Or would it be best to go up to 75mg at this point? Are there any Nardil users who didn't get the "kick in" feeling at 60mg, but did at a higher dose? If so, at what dose did it kick in? Do you have any other suggestions to offer?
As always, I would appreciate any help any of you could provide.
Thanks,
Tomatheus
