I just had to wait, and luckily in time, I was back to normal! Well, not normal exactly. It takes a little while longer, but at least it happens!

I take the top dose Marplan 60mg. 10mg Yohimbine was too much on my heart & gave me a hectic head, though nothingt was too bad that it felt dangerous. I choose to not take it anymore, BUT JEEZ DID IT WORK WELL! Best dose was 2.5mg (half a capsule).At that dose it was comfortably stimulating too, but just like any stimulant, daily usage just built tolerance. NOW IM NOT SUGESTING YOU TAKE YOHIMBINE. Just saying what i found.

> I think of all the people who quit Nardil early because of anorgasmia. The drug can and usually will change peoples lives for the better (to varying degrees) sometimes in a very powerful way, if only we all had the patients, for what truly is a BAD side effect.. As long as it still helps the main problem then I'd honestly give it a full year before giving up.

I've been wanting to switch to Parnate only because I have not seen any improvement with the Nardil. I wonder how long pDocs give you on the medication before switching you to something else?
Do you know how long you took HGW before you noticed a difference? I took just one bottle, and it wasn't helping so I did not continue it. I wonder if I gave it enough time. May have been a few weeks or so.
