I've been on Nardil now for over two months and one of the side effects (I have many) is a "stoned" look on my face. My eyes are slits, and I have a glazed look. People keep asking me if I'm ok. Has anyone else had this? I was hoping it would go away, but it's only increased.

Nardil did that to me as well, but it also made me feel stoned. I finally had to go off it because I couldn't function.

Only 4 weeks. I really couldn't function on the med.

I felt stoned on Nardil (not sure if I looked it though) and not in a good way.

Weird, I replied yesterday but it got lost, grr.
Anyhow yes I looked and felt stoned every day. I would have to tilt my head back to see because my eyelids would constantly fall almost shut. It freaked my missus out quite a bit and she said that in social settings I should perhaps explain I'm on a med lest others think I am actually off my head on God-knows-what.
However this is receding a lot these days which is good. Far more annoying for me was the falling asleep at work. I used to have to go fall asleep on the toilet for 10 minutes to try and get the sleepiness to pass. Not a pleasant place to sleep!
