I am down to 22.5mg Nardil as on 15mg i began to feel pretty depressed in the evening so i took an extra half a tablet.
Energy on Nardil has been very subtle if even there more so than other anti-deps i hae tried. maybe i need to wait for this lower dose to really kick in because 40ish mg i did not feel added energy the way Parnate did.
I heard about how generic Nardil is no longer the miracle med that it used to. Maybe I need to try brand name.
Parnate had such a profound astonishing difference (and well worth a try!) so it seems strange to me that another maoi would be so mild.
I did though have it augmented with ritalin (doctor approved) and after a week or so that augmentation gave a huge boost to Parnate which was already helping moderately. The effect of Parnate was quite inconsistent though. One week I felt better than I had in years and other times it was just moderate improvement of my strong treatment resistant depression + social anxiety.
