I am sorry to hear about the difficulties you have had with Nardil. I will not begin Nardil for another couple of weeks as I have a business trip and the last thing I want to do is be out of town when starting any med if I can avoid it.
Honestly, I am still a bit on the fence regarding starting this med as I hear so much about the side effects. Albeit, I also see lives being changed as it appears yours has. I now realize that I have had social anxiety since I was a child and I believe that this went uncontrolled and has now turned into depression which I have suffered from for at least the last 20 years, getting worse with time.
In my situation my blood pressure actually is a bit high without medication to control it so my pdocs thought, and my hope, is that perhaps the Nardil will reduce the bp and allow me to get off of the Lisinopril I am taking for this.
As far as weight is concerned...I have never been overweight, and if anything some would say I have always been more on the slender side. I am usually a very physically active person, but this has been reduced during the last year with this recent bout of depression. Oh how I hope that Nardil will help me get the motivation back to begin working out again! :)
Thank you all for comments in this thread as it is so helpful to hear about others experiences and what I *may* experience.
