>It's been 3wks and Nardil is not kicking in.
You should have experienced some improvement in your symptoms by now. Nardil may simply not be the best choice for you.
>my mood has plummeted with each passing day.
This is concerning. Are you safe?
>it only took 1 1/2 - 2wks to start really working
My concern is that you may have cyclothymia. You have described a sort of cycling in your mood, kind of swinging between depresssed and more depressed. I wonder if you've made this observation of yourself. I wonder how a little bit of mood stabilizer and antidepressant would affect you.
>Ritalin I've been on to help keep my mood up while waiting for Nardil to work has pooped out.
I doubt it has pooped out. I just think it can't keep up with your depression.
>I certainly never had this major deterioration in my mood.
How are life stressors? Do you find yourself worrying a lot?
>I was wondering if it's necessary to have a washout between two MAOIs.
Yes. I'm too tired to explain why, LOL
