Like you, the mere thought of an anti-depressant pooping out terrifies me. It never happened in all the years I took MAOI Parnate,and so when the poopout occurred with Remeron, I couldn't believe it was happening.

Why did you switch if the Parnate was working?

> I wish that all the "brains" in the pharmaceutical industry could give us some honest and educated reasons as to why an anti-depressant suddenly quits working.

I guess they can't do that because they don't REALLY know how or why it works in the first place.


> If it should happen to you, you have accept the unfortunate circumstance and decide which drug to try next. For me, the **MAOIs** appear to be the best of all, but that's a whole separate story. I'll tell you if you're curious about MAOIs. Meanwhile, good luck with the Remeron.

Thankyou and yes, I am curious. Tell me your story. My PCP, who originally diagnosed my depression and got me started on meds, was considering an MAOI as my experience with the SSRIs proved less than functional. I was too afraid to try one.

Thanks again for your response.
