> Thanks man. I think even over the last couple of days the ataxia is starting to get better. I don't feel as drunken anymore.That's the word! Drunk! When I first started Nardil when I went up the dose I was fumbling around like a drunk man! Bad cognitive probs too, but it all abated...

> My response so far has been subtle, but definitely noticible. I am starting to notice more and more of the effects, like much better sleep (stopped using my Ambien), reduced startle response.Absolutely thrilled for you! The best part is, I think the major AD/euphoric effects are pending!

> Another interesting thing. Because of reduced anxiety from the Nardil, I sometimes forget to take my Klonopin. I could not have gotten away with this before. So I experimented a bit, and cut my dose in half (slowly, of course over the last 3 or so weeks). Now I only take a small maintenance dose of Klonopin. I have no intention of ditching Klonopin, and I'm no hurry to get off it, but I find I just don't really need it as much. Just an interesting finding.
When Nardils full anxiolytic (sp?) effects kick in, which can take up to 12 weeks, I doubt you will feel the need for any klonopin...
> Thanks for all your advice during my little adventure. Your experience is very valuable to me and other newbie Nardil-ites on this board.That's great...I try not too get very technical unless somewhat asks me so...because all that would do is prove Im smart (which everyone already knows!) and baffle some other readers. Its great to help this world in any way....
