Hi Judy.
Nardil does start working again after a couple months if I stop taking it. That's not what I'm scared of. I'm scared of the depression it sent me into. That was truly horrible.
I've increased my lithium dose, and I'm taking buprenorphine to keep my head above water. (Buprenorphine is one of the five or six aces I keep hidden up my sleeve. It has pretty bad side effects, so I just take it "as needed.") If the lithium doesn't help, I'm thinking of trying a tricyclic - their side effects are pretty bad, but buprenorphine's are worse. If that fails, I guess Marplan will be the thing. This is all very scary...I feel like I'm in free-fall.
