Daniell,
I think it's conceivable that taking Nardil with lithium might be helpful. I don't know if you would get sufficient antidepressant benefits from 30 mg of Nardil, being that the dose is considered to be sub therapeutic, but at the same time, I wouldn't completely rule out the possibility that you might respond to 30 mg of Nardil with lithium.
What did the doctor that you saw advise for you to do, as far as your medications are concerned?
Some other members here with more knowledge on what medications can be combined with MAOIs might be able to offer you better advice on what to expect from 30 mg of Nardil with lithium and on what to do than I can. I will say that it's my understanding that taking lithium with Nardil is a strategy that seems to make sense, although the likelihood that you'll respond to 30 mg of Nardil (with or without lithium) is probably rather slim.
I wish you the best of luck with finding a medication or combo that you'll find to be both beneficial and tolerable.
