My understanding is that stopping an MAOI abruptly was potentially dangerous. I did this once inadvertently and felt absolutely dreadful (headache, depression) in about 12 hours. Do you think this was due to stress and anxiety because I'd forgotten my Nardil, or could these have been physiological symptoms?
Plus, I've always considered myself fortunate that Nardil hasn't blocked my REM sleep 100%. I'm a lifelong poor sleeper and insomniac, so I tend to wake up during particularly complex or disturbing dreams.
