I might be a candidate for this very low dosage. I can say that last time i weined off i still had a decent effect at even 30mg (for 2 weeks at least).
Theres a theory about phenelzine that 30-40% are very slow metabolizers of phenelzine. (lack en enzyme or sth? cant remember, maybe someone can enlighten us) I think part of the reason my last trial got a bit out of hand was that im a slow metabolizer. Also this non-enteric coated --> too much PEA sounds plausible to me, as it was a buildup of more and more dopaminergic effect and obviously this contributes to paranoid/psychotic thoughts.
As for this time i am confident i will make nardil work. Adding higher dose lithium orotate in the mix, being able to adjust the dosage in 3,25 mg steps to the minimal effective dosage and i am better prepared for insomnia. I will not go a single night with less than 5 hours of sleep (enforce it if necessary) and will aim at 6 1/2 hours. I think this is the ideal amount of sleep for me.. too much and my atypical depression is building up.
Ill try to steer within the euthymic-hypertymic range with a very rigid sleep regimen, going to bed and waking at the exact same time every day including weekends.
