> It's not just a passing mood then?

I'm not so much looking at passing moods that last a few days, as comparing my mood peaks to remission. After a year of treatment, my best just isn't good enough.

> Life tries the patience of the best of us.

Yes. I have been very impatient in the past. For me, patience has been a learned skill. We'll see how well I have learned the lesson with future treatments.

> But this bloke, he was kind of a new person on Pristiq. I was impressed.

Good to know.

> But I have no idea if he had previously tried Effexor.

So far, I know of only one person who has tried both Effexor and Pristiq. I am impressed as well.

> So it's not the side effects of Nardil that make you want to stop that?

No. The weight gain bothers me, but the other side effects are tolerable. It is important to titrate Nardil gradually so as not to provoke side effects, lest they linger.
