> Sleep (lack of) has always been a major issue for me, and on 300 mg of Lamictal and 60 mg of Nardil, I slept better than I have in my entire life. I am not sleeping as well since my Nardil dosage was increased to 75 mg (8 days ago), but I'm willing to stick with it for awhile and see what happens.
