Nardil (phenelzine): My psychiatrist utilized every combination you can think of and finally Nardil. While I am very careful about foods and wear a medic alert bracelet and carry an alert in my purse that NO Demerol can be given as it can cause death, I finally feel better from a deep depressive state since October 2008. My memory state however has not improved but my physical state has and I can at least get out of bed and be somewhat sociable with friends and family. I have had a very positive experience with it so far.

Nardil (phenelzine): I think I was depressed when I was born. Had tried many antidepressants, but none worked even half as well as Nardil. I was on Nardil for 20 years until I was forced to come off of it by a psychiatrist, and cold turkey at that. That's been almost 2 years ago and I've not been the same since.

phenelzine: Have been on Nardil for the past 3 years, after very bad side effects from all other drugs. I watch what I eat and everything is okay. Cons - weight gain and fluid retention problem.

Nardil (phenelzine): I began taking Nardil and Ativan after my psychiatrist had tried many other antidepressants. I only became more anxious and panic-prone. Gradually my "conditioned response panic attacks" began to decrease in frequency. I began to have confidence that the medication and my own awareness of my body's response to certain situations could be controlled. I have gained weight, but I have lived a near-normal life.

Nardil (phenelzine): I suffered from prolonged depression for most of my adult life with no relief until Nardil was introduced to me. I have been taking a daily dosage of Nardil for over 10 years and it has helped me enormously.
