> DeniseHey i thought i had responded so if this shows up twice my fault,anyway yess i have tried all of the ssris and each one agiated my depression,my anxiety and overall made me feel horrable.serzone wasnt too bad but aside from sedating it offered little relief in the anti depressant area.remeron uggh it knocked me out totaly and kept me in a zombie like state for a whole day..i chucked it.imiprimine the tricyclic had a nasty feel to it,i just did not like it.buspar i felt and still do is a worthless drug it helped me none and i rarly see anyone benifit form it,and its so expenisive.i was prescribed lithium but im not bi-polar and the parnate kicked in right before i was about to ingest my first lithium capsule so i did also chuck it away.trypothan and 5htp had no bad effects just not very helpful
now on to the good stuff....Klonopin like i said is a wonderful drug to me,i feel its a great tool to have handy when trying a new med in case you respond badly as i did to ssris id have huge anxiety and feel like im gonna jump out a window and the klonopin leveled me tru it.i first heard about parnate hear on posts and it was one of the few meds where the postive remarks seemd to outweigh the negative,so i researched.trust me it was like pulling teeth getting my pdoc to prescribe it until i finaly demanded it.good thing i know longer rely on pdocs for anything other than their signatures for my meds,they have done nothing but hurt me over and over again represcribing me ssris and combining them when i obivously am not right for them.i no longer trust them.anyway i was so surprised a maoi was never mentioned to me from any of my previous pdocs is their a conspiracy??(joking).anyway relying on my own research i started out on the parnte at 10 mg
and think im now feeling the benifit 3 weeks later at 40 mg.like i siad this is my fourth good day in a row AND GOD I HOPE IT LASTS.saturday when i added i mg of klonopin to my parnate i stayed out all day playing pool and acting like a normal 23 year old man,it was sooooo great to feel that way.
as i mentioned before i also staring using a ces machine which is fda approved but very expensive,its cool though it sends these lil electric buzzez alll aorund your head.to be fair im not sure what is causing this lil perios of relier but really dont care either im taking full advantage.just realize with parnate there are diearty restrictions,i did not take them seriously till i had a reaction(my own fault i ate chinese,shoudl have known better)i got a severe headache fast heart rate and blotches all over my skin.but since then i have been eating regualry i guess it will be a trial and error thing cause im not gonna be afraid to eat and if the parnate is working youd have to pry it form my blotchy hands before i stop taking it.i mean comparing a reaction to constant depression..man please bring it on baby i will take the occasional bad reactions like a MAN!! lol.anyone i think in all this babble i have answrered your question so peace and GOOD LUCK TOO!!!P.s MY DISSCLAIMER...THESE ARE MY OPINIONS,EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT ,DO NOT BE OFFENED OR DISCOURGED IF I DISSED A MED YOU TAKE OR WILL BE TAKING PLEASE ITS JUST MY EXPERIANCE.
