What I noticed immediately with Nardil was feeling confident. I hadn't realized I was anxious until I felt what it was like to not feel that way. I also was able to get up out of bed each morning, whereas with my atypical depression and leaden paralysis, I would just lie there even if I had somewhere I had to be.
I had two times that might have been hypertension related but were not crises. Once I had stuffing at Thanksgiving that had the broth the giblets were cooked in. I got a migraine-like headache that lasted for 2-3 hours and didn't respond to any of the usual things that help my migraines. Oh, side note---since taking Nardil I've only had a handful or less of migraines. I used to get them at least once a month, and usually two or three in a row when I got them. I don't know why it helps those, but it's definitely a bonus. The other time I had a similar headache I had eaten cheesecake that had Tia Maria in it. I didn't know that liquor was included. I had very carefully vetted everything else I ate, so I'm pretty certain that was it.
The diet has been fine to adapt to. I sometimes feel "high-maintenance" when I eat out, but I'm used to it now.
Can't think of anything else at the moment....
