:), no problem.

> I take 75 nardil, it's pretty effective for my anxiety, not so much for depression but functional at least. It's interesting you mention dysthymia on seroquel. I take a very low dose for sleep and have noticed this the next day...my moods have dipped although my anxiety is even better controlled (this seems to last, for now anyway, the whole next day) with seroquel added for nardil insomnia.

I would stick with seroquel for the insomnia that Nardil causes, but the weight gain has been HORRIBLE. Zyprexa did the same thing to me. I used to have a flat stomach, but not anymore. I'm pretty livid about it. :(
Nardil keeps the suicidal thoughts away and severe depression, but unfortunately that's all. It doesn't make me "happy", or give me what depression stole from me such as drive, enthusiasm, motivation, etc.

Already tried it. I don't recall it having any effect on me.

He, no no. I don't wanna wind up in the hospital, or ground for that matter!

Take care
