> thats what im worrying about now, and there even seems to be some suggestion that the GABA increase may be temporary since phenelzine depletes the MAO it needs to sustain the initial GABA-ergic response???

See mao is constantly trying to rebuild itself the entire time youre on an maoi. I know what youre saying, but what I recommend is avoiding any maois other than nardil if youre taking it, and you probably ingest more than youd ever think. For example, tabacco is a fairly potent maoi, so if you smoke, both mao a and b are typically 50% lower in smokers. Ginkgo biloba may also be an maoi. Recently linkadge posted something saying coffee has maoi activity so like I said there are probably more than you think and avoiding these may make nardil's gaba/anti anxiety effect more powerful, as it enhances gaba only after it has passed through mao.
