In reply to Which AD brings back the humor???, posted by Maria3667 on March 9, 2009, at 16:21:54
Ive never experienced a med do this on a long term basis but there is a euphoria that occurs in many people while starting & adjusting dosage towards stability. You laugh and smile alot, have lots of fun with silly stuff...kind of a "drugged out" experience though but very enjoyable. Nardil does have (for me) a uplift effect on my spirits though...lil burst here and there of hypomania...can also be increased with a lil coffee or small dose ginseng. I find myself singing and laughing alot during these lil episodes. Would probably depend on your symptomology though whether you would experience similar effects.
