Up, then back down

Several weeks ago I increased the Nardil to 75mg because I still was not feeling relief from the underlying sadness, the dysthymia. I started at the end of August at around 67.5 mg, and in mid-September went all the way up to 75mg. I did notice some more aggravation of the existing side effects: lots of gas and release of gas, lower sex drive and more orgasm difficulty. These are problematic at my age and life situation. I'm single and dating. Can you imagine? These two side effects are embarrassing! However, even more detrimental, I started noticing that I didn't feel many emotions. My friend even mentioned this to me. I don't want to feel like a drone! I took 75mg for 11 days. I didn't notice any improvement in the dysthymia. In fact, I had a horrible week while on 75mg, in part due to the end of the summer, a season that I love so much. So I went down to 60mg. It's been 5 days on 60mg and I feel the side effects ameliorating a bit, my emotions returning, and no worsening of the dysthymia.
