> Please keep us posted, Scott. I am considering adding Deplin to the Nardil since I am still having some depression even after 8 1/2 weeks on Nardil 45mg. I can't raise the Nardil dose as my BP is too erratic as it is.I think you should give it a try. Just know that if you experience "poop-out" after doing well on it, it might indicate that you are actually taking too much.
As I posted elsewhere, I had a severe depressive reaction to methylcobalomin. I took 1mg of the sublingual formulation in the morning. By evening, I was suicidal. By 11:00pm, the depression began to mitigate. By morning, I was OK again. Because I had a similar reaction to Cerefolin, which contains methylcobalomin, I concluded that it was indeed the methylcobalomin that was responsible for it. I am taking a B-Complex vitamin that contains cyanocobalomin. It doesn't seem to be hurting me any.

Are you saying that the B-Complex produces anxiety?
> Do you think Deplin would have the same effect?
No, I don't think it would. For me personally, I will not use MetanX, Cerefolin, or any supplement that contains methylcobalomin.
I know of two people who are doing better since adding Deplin to Nardil (one of them being me). My doctor has someone doing very well on Cymbalta + tryptophan + Deplin.
Be aware, though, that you might have to take Deplin for 2 months before you see results.
