Yeah I couldn't believe it but my psych who is really good said here try Baclofen (GABA-B agonist) and it completely well it was almost as good as nardil but I could sleep aswell and didn't have o wait for it to reach a steady state. Only problem is it only lasted about 2 months the same as phenelzine dose call it tolerance or poop out or whatever but that is the key to all this if someone can figure out how to eliminate tolerance they could become a millionaire. Maybe I will look into Memantine and add low dose lithium to the phenelzine.
Thanks for the reply. Any other good little rare novel cheap good cocktails you can think of off the top of your head
