Been following this page for a while and finally started phenelzine/Nardil 8 weeks ago…

It’s actually working!! Amazingly. For anxiety and MDD.

Started working at about 5/6 weeks when I reached 60mg.

Most annoying side effect is urinary retention and anorgasmia. No insomnia or weight gain. A little bit of hypotension and jaw clenching. No hypomania.

This drug is amazing. My emotional range is expanded, I feel so much happier and more connected, more confident, relaxed. Like the best version of myself. The best part is that I don’t necessarily “feel” it. It’s like it’s just changed me deeply.

Just wanted to share!

Since starting Nardil 6 weeks ago I have lost almost 10kg

It’s hard to explain but it pretty much has turned off my hunger signals and made me totally uninterested in food, apart from some mild sugar cravings. I’ve been in both wegovy and mounjaro before and Nardil is stronger for me in its appetite suppressant effects.

Any idea why this might be happening?? I’m finding it very strange as I was expecting to put on a bunch of weight. I’m worried about nutrient deficiencies and becoming underweight as I’m just totally apathetic towards food

Edit - I’m at 60mg and it’s starting to work v well for anhedonia/anxiety
(other side effects are mild hypotension, bruxism, sleep jerks, complete anorgasmia, bad urinary retention, constipation - though no insomnia really)

My junk has checked out completely… can get an erection but struggle to sustain it for a while, and no matter how hard I try can’t finish

will this go away? Is there something I can take which will at least allow an hour or two of sex? 😭😭

Hey guys have gotten severe urinary retention from Nardil a month in - to the point where I’m worried I might have to go to an and e soon. I really don’t want to quit as it’s starting to work well for md. Any solutions? Please help🥲🥲

As per title. For depression anhedonia and GAD. Please share successes 🙏
