John, did I hear you right in saying you started at 45 mg? The way to begin Nardil is slowly starting at 15 mg for a few days, then 30 mg for a few days, working up slowly to the target dose.
Your anxiety may be from this high dose to begin with. Not sure why you would have statred at 45. What does your pdoc say?
I too too Nardil 20 years ago and was on 15 mg twice a day. It worked beautifully on its own and if you don't know this the Nardil of today was reformulated and the outer coating dissolves more quickly than it should. Many people who were rock stable on the earlier version have decompensated on the version made by Pfizer which I think was rereleased in 2003. I may have that date wrong but no matter what, the current Nardil does not work as well as the original formula and many users had to get off of it becasue they crashed and burned.
That is all I can offer you as to why your anxiety might be through the roof.
