Nardil-No good (for me)

Posted by Tom Twilight on August 10, 2006, at 9:08:07

Nardil was my last hope for social anxiety

All its done is to make me sleepy and lethargic.

I'm like than enough already!

Don't know what to do

It can do that in the beginning.

Tom - Maybe 8 or 10 years ago I took Nardil - it was the original formula, of course. My experience - after about 6 weeks I had no Social Phobia - I was out playing my saxophone in public again after about 25 years. I would also take a .5 klonapin about 2 hrs. before I knew I would be performing. But it wasn't the Klonapin that got me up there, it was Nardil - just all of a sudden I was a different person, social, relaxed - 100% changed. It did make me more tired during the day, so I just drank a little more coffee, which I love anyway. BUT - I was younger then, and didn't feel alive sexually anymore, and didn't want to live that way, so I stopped the Nardil. In a short time I was back to my previous state. Many times I regretted that decision. Since I have tried other things, mostly SSRI's - Paxil worked, but not the same as Nardil for SP. So now for months I have been experimenting with Emsam, and I would say it pales is comparison - inconsistent, and I consider it a failure, although still taking it. Now I would take Nardil if it were the same, but because of all the negative things I have read regarding it's new formulation as of 2003, I am afraid to take it. That's the latest. I hope that there is an answer for us out there somewhere. Richard
