> I've Been on Parnate for about 2 months. Without a doubt, there has been a very positive response. Some strange things have happened (I must mention that I take lithium 900 mg, and started at 600 mg around 3 1/2 years ago). What I have noticed are: Increased thirst (never before with the lithium) and therefore increased urination. Early evening becomming very sleepy, and therefore having no trouble with sleep, whatsoever. Here is the strang one: Very intense cold intolerance (Columbia, SC). I wonder if this one is related to thyroid, so I had my doc run a tsh, which came back "normal", which we all know my not mean anything at all. These are in my opinion small side effects which by far outweigh the depression. I have a better outlook on life, more energy etc... It's the cold intolerence thing that is really strange, what do my fellow babblers in their fountain of knowledge think? happy new year blessings,

My daughter has been on Parnate for 5 months. It did relieve an awful, 2 year depression, but she has symptoms that I have never observed before. Paranoia, compulsions, delusions, disturbed sleep, loss of hair, and many physical complaints. This has even led to a hospitalization. Two doctors told me it was not the Parnate, but, like I said, this is just not my daughter. Has anyone experienced these symptoms?
Thanks, Cynthia
