>>1. Do you remember the actual 'zap' when it kicked in? Was it undeniable? how can you explain it?
2. How long have you been on it?
Hi,
A lot of people notice a zap, I don't think I experienced the zap effect as much as some people. I did notice though first and improvment in mood, meaning I use to always get moody and uncomfortable in situations... then I noticed I wasn't becoming depressed anymore.. The last effect was social anxiety and I first remember walking through the park usually unable to look people in the eye who passed and usually feeling anxiety as they got closer was gone... I didn't feel any anxiety and on car rides I use to lean down far into my seat and not look at anyone beside me in fear they would be staring back. Then I started to sit up high in my seat and look around a lot more at people.. Noticing most of them aren't paying attention to you....
After noticing these things I would test myself by walking in public places such as malls, stores, etc. and I was amazed that I didn't feel nervious or sweating uncontrallably anymore... I also popped out of bed with a lot of energy (not so much anymore but I wake up on 6 hours sleep).
I would have considered my social anxiety pretty bad, I wouldn't even go to the store...
There is a lot more I could write but I have to get ready to leave.. if you have more questions email me cosis@alltel.net
Oh yes, the side effects did go away in time, the worst was anorgasmia and that took 4 months! But I was on a high dose 90mg.... I been on Nardil for about 5+months now....
