> Thanks for the response. DId Nardil affect your DESIRE for romance, or a relationship (if you were single at the time)? I'm less concerned about the mechanics, as I've never had a physical problem with libido in all my many trials of meds. I'm more concerned about it taking away the more broadly-defined libido instinct...for love, relationships, success, etc.
Nah, IMO Nardil should actually help with that. But be careful what you say about sexual side effects -- Nardil is one nasty drug.

> How long did it take Nardil to kick-in? You have any major s/e besides insomnia (and what do you use for it?)I don't remember some things. I'd guess a few weeks on Nardil, until I had been at 60mg for a week or two.
My side effects included insomnia, hypomania, stomach acid, rash, both erectile and orgasmic dysfunction, postural hypotension, weight gain, some others. They would mostly come at random times. These were all fairly severe, like when I say "stomach acid" I mean a burst of fire. Except the hypomania, which was more or less constant and not extreme.
