I understand that MAOIs can be scary. But I have to say I just love my Nardil, cos it has saved my life, and more...I mean I was smiling with joy at several points today, enjoying life as I have not done in years, if not decades. :D
I just worry that you are on so many damn drugs!
Hope you feel better,
Kat
