linkadge: Nardil never pooped out for me. I did lose the initial euphoria and subsequently much of the energy boost, but it never stopped helping my social phobia, anxiety, and depression at least 50% (social phobia more like 75%-100% depending upon the situation). This was 10 months after starting it. Probably would've lasted at least 5-10 years, if not forever. It is the only AD that actually felt like it did anything resembling "correcting" a problem. Of course, that is all subjective. By "correct the problem" I mean that I was able to enjoy life!
I went off of it to try amphetamine because I was having problems holding down a job due to concentration problems (which exist on no meds). Nardil improved it somewhat, but not enough. I am beginning to think that I just have to find whatever occupation allows me to be a space cadet, compensate as best as I can, and take nardil again. If I can just get far enough to find a doctor that will Rx amphetamine WITH the Nardil, then my pharamcological nightmare will be over.
