In terms of efficacy, I would leave it at that for a full 4 weeks...then we can look again at the situation.

> Also, how persistent are these cognitive "dumbing" effects? Do these go away with time?For me they do. But they can last a while. I now think much clearer on Nardil.
I hope so. I feel pretty clumsy and forgetful right now. Other than that, really no side effects at all. I didn't even get hypotension.Good for you mate! Just be patient with the cognitive s/effects, they will pass- I am almost certain.
> Glad to hear Nardil's pulling through for you again!In 13 months it has been a blessing, a real blessing. At its worst it works very good...and at its best Im in heaven!! I truly feel blessed to have this medicine. And I feel great that I've seen other people take it due to my posts and recieve the same happiness.
> Stick with what works, man! You sound like you're doing well.Power to you Matt. I hope the CBT is working too. I think that stuff can help when one is feeling better...so I am more fair on it these days...I just can't stand David burns's new website!!!!!!
> MattPeace brother, I'm always a post away (or a plane trip to Australia!)
