I think the nortriptyline is having an effect- just not the kind I wanted. During my washout before Parnate, all I did was cry, day and night. Since Parnate, I barely cry at all. These last 2 days I cry at everything. I've also just generally felt more depressed, less motivated, more guilt, more sadness. Now, I did find out I gained alot of weight, which was depressing and am currently going through a spiritual crisis (see faith board), which is depressing, but I don't think those 2 alone explain how i feel. This feels chemical. I think the nortriptyline is making me worse. Now, there is every possibility that what's happening is that I increased so fast that my body is going "what the hell" and reacting to the rapid change rather than the nortriptyline itself, and that's what I'm hoping. I'll stay on the nortriptyline and keep it stable and see what happens, but this is very disheartening. I had such high hopes for the nortriptyline!
