Hey guys :) I've been on Nardil for a while now, and I finally feel good enough to be back in the dating game after 3 years of loneliness. But there's a horrible catch 22... Sex is "incomplete" with Nardil. No orgasm unless I concentrate on having one for a LONG time, and no one has the patience to wait an hour for me to get off... What should I do? Is there any meds for this? -LOVE YOU GUYS-

Yeah but not for like an hour !
I guess you just have to realise that you have to trade in one thing for another, which sucks, but until they invent an AD that doesn't affect sex drive etc then thats what we have to put up with.

There are at least a few drugs that can help with this side effect and can be taken on an "as needed" basis. i forget the names of them -- one i think is called cyproheptadine or something like that-- but they exist. Ask your doctor and/or do a search.

>How about switching to Parnate? From what I gather, Nardil will make you sleepy and impotent and Parnate will make you insomniaic and randy... although this is a generalization I've gotten from different people's experiences...

>Nardil only makes me sleepy about 1-2 times a week, and not impotent at all. Just a minor delay in orgasm which is fine by me :)

Dear Cosis,
How much nardil do you take? Any insomnia or memory loss?

I agree with the others. If you can switch to Parnate, it might make the difference. I've never had sex problems while taking it.

Thanks Guys... Is Parnate good for social anxiety/phobia? That's mostly what I take Nardil for. I wouldn't mind having a little more energy... Nardil is "sluggish".

Nardil is definately the best drug for social phobia but some people experience relief with Parnate

Parnate does'nt come close to Nardil for SP (just my experience). Someone posted that Viagra can be taken with Nardil and showed me the link. You might want to do a search for this. I don't know how safe this is.

My biggest fear is gaining weight (fat) like I did on Paxil, Celexa, Zoloft, Lexapro, Effexor, and some others. On top of that they had other side-effects that just made me more depressed. They gave me a blah feeling and no motivation.
How likely is it gain weight on MAIO's? Experience?

Oh, let me also mention that the root of my problems is social anxiety or phobia. I'm also starting to get into body building so low body fat is crucial.

Hey Matty,
Try Bethenachol 40mg as a single dose. It usually clears my pipes!Ace.
