uncouth,
You've only been at your current dose of 90 mg/day for a week. In my experience with Nardil, it took two weeks at any given therapeutic dose before I started to feel Nardil's antidepressant effects. I also think that the daytime sedation that you're experiencing is a sign that the medication's longer-term effects have yet to kick in. I understand that not everybody's experiences with Nardil have been the same, but when I took the medication, the daytime sedation started to fade right around the same time that the medication's therapeutic benefits began to kick in.
So, I would definitely give it at least another week (maybe two or three) at 90 mg before I'd begin to question whether or not the Nardil that you're taking will work in the long run. There's still a good chance that Nardil may work well for you.
