I'm the same way with caffeine. I drink three or four cups in the AM. It acts as a mild stimulant and seems to make my Nardil response better. Not like a normal caffeine addiction where if you don't get your morning coffee, you just don't function well, and start into withdrawal.That's why I think a mild stimulant like modafinal or methylphenidate might make a good augmenter of Nardil for me. We are all so different.
Take care,
