I have been on nardil 60 mg. and wellbutrin 300mg for about a month now, and it was working last week, but now i feel it is pooping out. Particulary my memory. I am contantly leaving the stove on, losing my wallet, putting dirty clothes in the dryer instead of the washer, etc. I have been trying to leave my boyfriend and start a new life for myself, but I need to know i'm stable first, and i can only seem to get there for 3 weeks. I also have really bad bad insomnia, i constantly have black circles. I'm exhausted at night, but i still just toss and turn?
Should i try something else, or take more nardil? I am already passing out about once a week. Any help would be appreciated. It's so hard to plan for a future when you don't know when you might lose your sanity agian, or when you have it, you're always afraid it's short lived. What about Same? Anyone have any luck with that? I'm ready to try anything at this point, so any suggestions would really be appreciated.Thanks, Shrimp

As far as I know you are not supposed to take wellbutrin with nardil or any other MAOI. It is supposed to be very dangerous. Several months ago I switched from Wellbutrin to Nardil, and my doctor made me wait 2 weeks after stopping the Wellbutrin before starting the Nardil. Most everything I've read agrees with this. For example, go to: www.mentalhealth.com.
You should double-check with your doctor about the combination you are taking and talk to your pharmacist. Are you seeing a psychiatrist for your meds or just a regular GP? Not all GPs know what they're doing when it comes to antidepressants. As a personal example, at one point I was on Zoloft and getting my meds from a GP - the dosage kept pooping out so he kept increasing it until we got to 400 mg., which is twice the maximum dose. The guy just didn't have a clue.
Please double-check that what you're taking is okay.
