In reply to Who here is currently on new Nardil?, posted by Michael Bell on February 20, 2005, at 0:36:21
I am on day 10 of Nardil (45mg) after stopping a short 5 day trial of Parnate (10mg). Parnate felt way to activating and I really felt detached.
So far I have to say it has had only a mild effect on my social anxiety. I am hoping that it will kick in soon! Anyone have experience for how long it takes to get the full effect?
The only real side effect I have so far is feeling kind of "hazy". None of the other stuff that I usually experience with ADs, actually it has increased my libido. From SE perspective it is far superior to anythin else I have taken.
I am not sure if this hazy thing goes away. It seems to be getting better, but I don't think I could continue taking Nardil if this continues. This would be a shame as I have tried almost everyhing else (SSRIs, SNRIs, benzos, anti-seizures, tri-cyclics, even ). I am still taking a bit of Klonopin but hope to ween myself off. That has been the one tried and true fix for my social anxiety but I started to get depressed taking it after about a 8 months.
