Hey (sorry for super late response). No, definitely that sounds like a smart idea. Nothing is as convincing as-- or even means anything compared to-- personal experience. I hope it's working well for you.
> I don't plan on lowering Nardil anytime soon. I might go down from 45 to 30 to minimize side effects but believe me, if I start losing the effectiveness I'll go right back up.
