> I just started Nardil today (for SP & Depression). I took my first 15mg pill around 10am, and my second recently @ 2pm. I don't notice anything different - yet. Of course I know most ADs take a certain amount of time to build-up in the blood stream so I don't expect an instant reaction.

It's now day 3 on Nardil. I'm up to 60mg a day. The only side-effect I have noticed so far is loss of very short-term memory. It's hard for me to hold a thought for more than abuot 30 seconds. Kind of a pain but hopefully it will lessen. Even if it doesn't I think it's worth it if I get to live some of my life with less anxiety and depression.
I seem to find Nardil a bit activating for so far. It doesn't make me speedy, but it doesn't slow me down any either. The best part is I can go to sleep when I want and wake up at a decent hour with little grogginess. I think that is due the depression lifting. Hopefully the side-effects stay to the minimum. Anyone think going up to 90mg next week is too soon?
Thanks,
Carlos
