> When you say narcotics, do you mean vicoden and the like?
Yes; Vicodin(hydrocodone & acetaminophen), Percocet(acetaminophen & oxycodone) and codeine are all fine. If you need these, you will probably have to do some research to show your MD that they are OK. Especially if he does not work with MAOIs and believes everything he reads in the PDR. Any narcotic that potentiates serotonin is out of course. Demerol(meperidine) with MAOIs will probably give you the long dirt nap!
>You drink 4-5 cups a day!? Wow. I'm terrified of quitting. I'm switching to a cup of black tea tomorrow for the next few days until I have stop altogether from caffeine.
Yes, I use caffine as a mild stimulant with Nardil. Nardil causes afternoon somnolence in a lot of people. I have no side effects from caffeine with Nardil. When I tried Parnate, it was so activating for me that I could not drink coffee.
> Where are you?
I live in Washington State.
