Ok then, I hear ya, I'm with you. No one knows better than you. So if you say it was Nardil, then it was. Agreed.
Actually if you think about it, everything you described is pretty much what you could expect during a rapid withdrawal. So it makes me wonder....was there something in the diet recently that screwed with the absorption of the med? Was their something wrong in the formulation of the med that you got an inconsistent ingredient from pill to pill or bottle to bottle? We've sure heard a lot about that with nardil over the last few years. In any case, it looks like what would happen if you just suddenly stopped taking it. So the question is, why?
I don't know, other than the above possibilities I mentioned.
Maybe the dose was too high? Ya know, too much feels just as bad as not enough. We usually don't look at it that way, but it's true. A chemical imbalance can not only be fixed with a med, but a new chemical imbalance can be created by taking a wrong dose....overshooting the target.
On the other hand, maybe something happened and now the dose needs to be higher? Ultra high doses are not uncommon with either nardil or parnate.
I know the kind of rapid darkness you talked about. With me it was always a result of taking too much of a med or supplement.
It is an unfair cruel mystery. I wish I had something more useful to say. We all deserve better.
