benzos ok on Nardil?

Thanks for replying guys. . .it means a lot to me since none of my friends or family can really help me with questions like these.

Well, I'm no stranger to the benzos. . .I've used Klonopin in the past and I'm currently on Ativan. Ativan has been great, in fact I think it's more responsible for my improvement than Wellbutrin, since I started WellB before I started Ativan, and WellB by itself made me feel anxious and jumpy.
If it would be possible to use some sort of benzo for the first four weeks or so on Nardil--you know, before it's started working--then I think I'd be fine. Does anyone know if that would be a bad interaction? Also, Xanax sounds like it could be a temporary stand-alone med since it apparently has both anti-anxiety and antidepressant qualities, but isn't Xanax hard to quit when you decide not to use it anymore?

Thanks for the caffeine idea, but caffeine makes me anxious :( I'm thinking of trying a natural sedative/antidepressant in the interim, like kava.
