An interesting follow up on this one, I'm back at a 75 mg dosage of the Phenelzine now and still waiting for it to kick in.

My pDoc had me taking 45 mg at 09:00 and 30 mg at 12:00 due to the stimulant effects causing me insomnia. I noticed that although I couldn't sleep at night I did have a patch in the afternoon each day where I could hardly keep my eyes open. So as a trial, I changed my dosing times to 45 mg at 20:00 as the sleepiness seemed to occur about 3.5 hours after my dosage and 30 mg at 23:00.

Since the change in times, I have dropped straight off to sleep each night at 23:30-24:00 and not stirred until 09:00. No insomnia at all!

An additional benefit seems to be that my anxiety the following day is considerably lower. Not sure whether that can be attributedd to the change in timings or to the side effects wearing off as mentioned in other posts above.

Hope the above info helps some other people.
