Yeah I took it for social phobia and rejection sensitivity, which I guess could be a symptom of atypical depression, though I was never diagnosed with depression.
As far as why I got all of those symptoms, I have no idea. There are some I forgot to mention. My veins became very small and almost collapsed, in a sense. Doctors had extremely hard time getting blood from me, when just a week earlier (and my shole life) my veins were always very full and perfect for drawing blood. It's almost like Nardil was doing something to my circulatory system. I believe this all started happening when I went up to 60 mg, but I'm not 100% sure on that.
On top of that, I had started getting seizures and my vision would go black for a couple of seconds and I would see very vivid geometrical patterns.
Oh, and I also started getting auditory hallucinations (though I think this was from the Xyrem, not the Nardil).
It is like I was experiencing, one by one, every single side effect listed on the packet insert. Nothing like this has ever happened to me in my life.
I wonder if it has something to do with the fact that I also take Xyrem? They are not officially contraindicated, but you never know.
