The same thing happened to me. I started WB and almost immediately felt *wonderful.* After two weeks, things evened out. I think your body adjusts to the extra dopamine after that and the effects aren't so intense.
I've experienced that with every psych med I have tried, actually. First week on Zoloft was like floating on clouds, but that lessened.
As for seizures, I think they say that because if you have one, you're likely to have more. WB lowers the threshold.
It's my understanding that MAOIs with anything that inhibits reuptake of neurotransmitters is a very dangerous thing. I may be wrong, but I don't know that MAOIs only increase seratonin levels--I think there are other neurotransmitters involved as well.
