> I'm at day five now on Nardil. So far so good, no orthostatic hypotension problems, BP problems, no sexual problems, and really all around no side-effects at all. Seems pretty easy so far, but I know some of the side effects emerge later in treatment.Yes and no.

AD's in general usually reduce dreaming, right?In a couple weeks time REM sleep will be completely abolished. You MAY find yourself waking up at 4am and then going back to sleep./
