For Depression "There are many, many antidepressants, but then there's Nardil—one of a kind. This medication obliterated my major depressive disorder (MDD), which was so severe that even getting out of bed was a monumental task. I had a lack of motivation, anhedonia, constant suicidal thoughts, and feelings of overwhelm and doom. Nardil put a stop to all (and also eradicated my social phobia). For me, 60-90 mg is necessary, and it takes a while to work—took about 8 weeks the first time. The side effects were manageable, mostly vertigo, increased appetite, and constipation. In over 20 years, I haven’t had a single negative experience with the dietary restrictions. I eat what I want without issue. I've tried coming off Nardil three times: twice in an attempt to be medication-free, and once to try Parnate. The first two times, I didn’t experience withdrawal symptoms, but my depression and anxiety returned. The third time, Parnate provided some relief, but wasn't nearly as effective as Nardil."

For Depression "I was very upset after trying this drug. I had such high hopes and am very confused with the high ratings. I was on Nardil for 2 months and have experienced many side effects: dizziness, fatigue, nausea, no energy, worse depression, zero libido, agitation. I was on 45 mg and could barely stand up at this dose. If you are sensitive to medication, this is probably not for you. The only advantage was a slight reduction in anxiety."

For Depression "Nardil helps with anxiety but made me extremely tired, depressed, and agitated. I could only tolerate a low dose of 30 mg. Every time I tried to raise it to 45 mg, I experienced dizziness to the point of fainting, agitation, and crying spells."
