So far i am on my second week of phenelzine at 15 mg three times a day. All it does for me is turn me into a detached zombie, i want to sleep all the time, have stomach ache and constipation, and become shivery cold so i have to wear a big coat inside the house. I knew i would have side-effects but this beats any other med i have ever tried.
I was on parnate before but had a similar problem only the fatigue would come on about 2 hours after each dose where as now it is from midday until nightime.
I don't care about eating, i can't be bothered to wash or take any care in my appearance. I basically feel and lool withdrawn and tired. People comment on the fact that i don'e make any conversation and that when i do i can't find the right words.
Will these side-effects go away? If not i am probebly going to have to come off it. I feel worse now then i did before. At least i did not spend the day shivering cold and lying in bed.
Please can someone who has been on this tell me this will pass ?
