I had a difficult time with hypotension and urinary retention. However, Florinef and Urecholine can be used to treat those side effects respectively.

You wrote,[...That's a great suggestion (to take Nardil, Nortriptyline and a benzodiazepine)...].
My concerns here are that the combination of those drugs has the potential to induce life-ruining conditions or death. If you could post answers to the following, then I could have the opportunity to see what your rationale(s) could be for stateing here what you have
A. What criteria do you use, if any, to state that the suggestion to take those drugs is {a great suggestion}?
B. Now if a {less-confident} member here sees that you state that the suggestion is great, I think that there could be the potential for that type of person to go out and try to find those drugs to take somehow. I base this on that this site is for support and support takes precedence, and that Mr. Hsiung has made a rule concerning {less-confident} members to consider them. So I think that some others could die as a result of thinking that a member such as yourself wrote that the suggestion to take those drugs is great, and they took the drugs thinking that there is a reccomendation from you, and support takes precedence so one could think that your reccomendation of being great is supportive, and died from respiratory depression or some other cause that could be induced by the drugs. So this brings up a situation where I am requesting that you post here your rationale(s) and a citation to show that the combination of the drugs could not kill someone that takes them. If you could post that, if there is a citation that states that, then I could further respond to you.
C. You also posted here that the {only} drawback is...
I am concerned that the {less-confident} member could take that as being supportive and think that, lets say, serotonin syndrome could not be a drawback, or CNS depression could not be a drawback, or diabetes could not be a drawback, or addiction could not be a drawback, or suicide thinking could not be a drawback ect, ect.
So my request here to you is could you post a citation here that substantiates the claim that you posted? If you could, then I could respond to you. If you could not, then I think that could go a long way to help the {less-confident} member, or even the confident and more-confident members, to make a more informed decision as to take the combination of drugs that you say is a great suggestion, or not to take them. By accommodating my request, if you do so, I think that lives could be saved, life-ruining conditions could be avoided and addiction could be avoided, which I think could be good for this community as a whole.
