> One more thing that is often true. The therapeutic response to antidepressants do not follow a straight line, especially for difficult TRD cases. It can be a bumpy ride. Two steps up and one step back. However, you should see a long-term trend towards continued improvement until you reach a maximum effect.
>This is a good reminder - thanks a lot. I had bad urinary retention early on (about 10days in) along w anorgasmia and increased sweet cravings. All are much less now. I never got the sitting/standing bp drops and my BP is just under normal (110/75 usually). On marplan it used to be real low.
I don't feel "bad" but somewhat deflated and tired today (slept a lot) where I had been happy and motivated.
I'm not sure I mentioned but I did also just start Metformin ER (same time as Nardil) which I suppose could cause some fluctuations.
It's nice to hear the two steps forward / 1 back thing though. Hopefully I tend back the other way. Today was definitely a step back.
