> Jedi: Thanks for answering all my questions, and my prayers are with you on your switch from Nardil to Parnate. Let me ask you this: I know you said exercise was key in the weight battle with Nardil, but did you also monitor your diet? You know, try to eat as healthy as possible? I am interested to find out if that makes any difference. Thanks again, and I am saving your other email. That pumps me up! Michael


Hi Michael,
Not everybody gains weight on Nardil. If you have the willpower to get by the carbohydrate cravings, of course it will help. One of the symptoms of atypical depression is the binge eating. There is something about Nardil, I haven't figured out what, that lets your body binge without immediately feeling the negative consequences. While on Nardil, I can eat so far past being full it is almost ridiculous. But that's me, not everybody. If you think a medication will help, don't pass on it because of somebody elses side effects.

I think the main thing about exersise is not the calories you burn during the activity. It is an overall increase in your metabolism plus just a feeling of well being. When I am seriously depressed I can not force myself to work out, even though I know it will make me feel better.

Let me reiterate. I believe that Nardil, augmented with clonazepam, is one of the best combinations for anxiety.

Good Luck and thanks for your positive comments. It is nice to hear that some of my experiences may help someone else in a small way.
Take care,
Jedi
