> Scott-What you say is true but . . .we can't see into Ace's brain but I have a hunch that the Zyprexa may have had an adverse effect on the Nardil.
> Ace, have you been diagnosed as schizophrenic or have acute bi-polar disorder? if not, then why did the doctor put you on Zyprexa? Is this drug definitely approved as a booster for MAOIs? It sounds to me like you might have screwed up your success with Nardil by adding Zyprexa. I'm not a doctor, but if I were you, I'd first make sure that the Zyprexa is indicated for your problem. This is all very complicated and you've got to talk to your doctor ASAP.Thanks for the response. We used the Zyprexa to try and wipe out my OCD. All my diagnosis are extreme anxiety problems. But this is my worry: The Zyprexa is now almost all out of my system and I still feel depressed. Maybe the Nardil has pooped out- that really makes me want to cry. Maybe I should keep going with Nardil and let it 'recover' from Zyprexa buggering it up- if Zyprexa truly did. But when I was on 2.5 Zyprexa the Nardil actually kicked in so I don't know what to think. I am really panicking, I thought the depression was from the Zyprexa and would pass, now I'm not sure.
