I've been on Nardil 60 mg. for about a week, along with 400 mg. Wellbutrin. I was at 45 for about 4 weeks, (with the Wellbutin) but the usual happened, i felt amazing for 2 days, normal good, not drugged or euphoric, but the bar is so low now that normal feels euphoric. and then i crashed and had to up it to 60. Now at 60, it takes me 45 minutes in the morning before i feel that i can walk without passing out. The other morning i lost my vision. I'm really spaced out and tired, can sleep sitting up. Excuse me for being so crass, but i am also totally constipated and have to take laxatives every other day, which cannot be good for me. I'm also very weak, i can no longer exercise. My memory is very short, and in general i just feel drugged. Oh, and i night i twitch like i have Tourettes's, sometimes my whole body convulses. Tempting plate huh? I was thinking that maybe, hopefully the spaciness, which feels like a milder version of that moment right before you pass out, could be related to the blood pressure. I had very low blood pressure before i started the Nardil. So does anyone know what's up with this? Or what i can do to make these side effects go away? someone told me that taking SAMe with Nardil has been effective. Do i really need all this Wellbutrin? Any, and i mean any, information would be greatly appreciated. These side effects are making me feel like a 90 year old, and i'm so spacy that it doesn't even matter if my mood is better, because i am still a dumb ass like i was when i was depressed. Still no motivation, still anhedonia. Thank you to anyone who answers this post and can give me ANY insight. Oh, to anyone worried about the weight gain, i have completely lost my appetite, probably because i am to tired to get to the fridge. or maybe the wellbutrin. maybe small doses wellbutrin could be the answer for people gaining weight, of course talk to your doctor, i don't really know. thanks again to anyone who can help me with this, and i will gladly speak to anyone about my experience with the nardil/wellbutrin combo. I can't find anyone who is taking these two meds simultaneously.
