Lar I'm changing to Nardil tomorrow night after 7 days Effexor washout. You mention looking out for Serotonin Syndrome. I'm a bit puzzled as the main problem with MAOIs with tyramine-high foods is hypertensive crisis (is that included in serotonin syndrome?) and hypertension has no symptoms. However they list headache. I've never known high BP give me a headache (psychiatric drugs usually make sure I have one of those anyway). But what about too much norepinephrine or dopamine slooshing about? Or GABA or some artificial neurotransmitter both of which Nardil is said to increase or produce respectively?
Incidentally, I hope I don't get so anxiety-free that I go round stroking tigers
