In reply to MAOI + Aspartame = better AD response?, posted by PeterMartin on April 1, 2014, at 17:49:44
I absolutely think this is a phenomenon, and i've mentioend it to others myself!
It is understudied for sure, but I've always increased my diet coke consumption dramatically when on MAOI. I also had a great response to PEA + MAOI in the past (though straight PEA is bad and caused major issues in the long run; short run it destroyed depression).
I had a cousin once who was addicted to cigarettes+massive quantities of diet soda. Seriously. He was self treating depression. Others have reported that also--pack-a-day cigarette smoking in combo with aspartame is a rich man's antidepressant (given the cost of cigarettes).
I've started nardil the past few weeks; i've noticed my diet coke consumption increasing...
