> I was on Nardil for 5 years at 120mg a day. I could not go on with it because I was getting no real sleep from it, and besides it was not very effective. Getting off Nardil cold turkey nearly killed me. I was out of operation for three months. It was hell.
It was unnecessary for you to suffer that way. Why did you choose to not restart the Nardil and taper it once you started going through hell? Did your doctor encourage you to stop taking it abruptly?
> But I'm happy to be off it because Nardil does not offer any long term hope...
I disagree. This is not the experience of everyone who takes Nardil. Why did you stay on it for 5 years if it wasn't very effective?
> you just can't take it very long.
Why not?
How did you attempt to treat the insomnia?
Nardil is neither a savior nor a devil. It's a tool that apparently was not well suited to you.
For how long have you been medication-free?
