> Nardil euphoria probably corresponds to significant deprivation of certain sleep cycles but, the system fights back, the cholinergic axis grows ever stronger to bring you down. Eventually sleep cycles normalize and the euphoria ends.
That's a very interesting theory.

Do you feel that there is a tug of war between DA and ACh systems?
What is also interesting is that mania can occur upon the discontinuation of Nardil. This has happened to me.
