> Glad to finally hear some smiliar experiences. When I began Parnate I didn't sleep for the first 3 weeks...I got about 2 hours a day. Eventually I began getting about 5 hrs. However I am wondering if anyone has had a problem getting Parnate from their pharmacy. I was told it was on back order and that there is no release date yet for it. So in the mean time my dr. has put me on moclobimide (i'm not sure of the spelling) and I am still waiting.
weird when i began reading this message i thought for a second that *I* had written it :)
... yes i have had a problem getting it from a few pharmacies... my solution? just call around a bit... actually i asked my doc and apparently my problem was i was calling up one pharmacy chain that had all of their drugs in a central location... ! you're much better calling different chains, particularly smaller ones...
... you don't happen to be in toronto do you?
> I also am kinda curious about what you all take when you have a hypertensive crisis. My dr. told me not to worry about it and not to really be concerned about the food restrictions. Of course I didn't listen and am rather cautious. I know I need a new dr. however he is the only psychiatrist where I live. I must say though
... yeah my doc didn't give me a pill and only told me to avoid about 4 types of food...
i havn't had a crisis in the 10 weeks i've been on it, so i'm feeling pretty confident...what makes you think you need a new doc??
>both of these meds have been wonderful after trying effexor, remeron, paxil, wellbutrin, celexa, and tonnes more that I can't even spell or say half of the time!
... what were your experiences on these drugs? ... did remeron help anxiety more than the rest? did wellbutrin help depression more than the rest? ...
... actually i guess i should have asked your diagnosis first :) ... i'm bipolar II - mainly depressed
