Hi all:
I finally discontinued Nardil (and had the two week washout) because it was no longer effective at 90mg, and my doctor wouldn't prescribe me a higher dosage.
I asked her about Vivactil, because it looked promising for my symptom set (and can start to work in as quickly as a week) but she was pushing Effexor XR and I agreed.
I've been on it two weeks (first week 75mg, second week 150mg) and feel sick as a dog. Anxiety is through the roof, stomach ache all day long...
Should I give it the six week try or get off it now and try something else? SSRIs quit working for me years ago... I am wondering if I am just making myself sick with this med or if the side effects will go away and it will begin to work.
