hey there, nardil has helped many with SAD. It has even been called "the golden standard" for SAD. There are a few things to consider though. The side effects of anorgasmia and weight gain can be rough. Some people simply stop being anorgasmic after being on the med for over 8 months, and some have managed to manage their weight with good diet and exercising... not a bad habit anyways.
One more thing. Sometimes it "poops out" on people. The benefits may not seem as prevalent (there will be a pretty good spike at the very beginning when it kicks in... this will level off to a more consistent feeling) after a while. Some people manage this by going off the med for a week or two and then going back on. Somehow the med gets going again. Still others had to switch to something else like parnate to get a decent affect again.
Hope this helps. It's a very good option, but one that requires knowledge and thinking through.
