Hi PB,
I'm on the process of switching to Parnate after 2+ years on Nardil. I have been dreading the transition since my mental health is bad even when on the Nardil. I've now reached 15mg a day of Nardil by decreasing 15mg a week from 45mg (note that I was on 90mg for the majority of the 2 years).However, I am finding that my mood has stabilised and overall improved over the last 2 weeks. Does anyone have a good feel for why this might be? In theory, there's not enough active metabolite in my system to effect sufficient MAO inhibition and so I should be feeling rotten. Don't get me wrong, I plan to enjoy it while it lasts but I know things can change radically and rapidly for the worse.
Thanks
Pedr
I love the smell of Nardil in the morning. The smell, you know that chemical smell. Smells like victory. Some day this war's gonna end...
