I've been on both, and both work well for depression and social anxiety. Nardil has a reputation of being kind of sedating, but I loved it. Took up bike racing, lost weight, got a degree. Parnate can be a rough ride on, it rewires your brain, but if you can hold out for the first eight weeks it's great. The problem is that it metabolizes into all sorts of weird stuff, including amphetemine and methamphetamine. It can be VERY hard to sleep enough for the first few weeks. It can also make you tacchycardic and can cause cardiac arrythmia- rare, but it happened to me. I think it was dose related. It's well worth the diet and drug restrictions if it works, and I understand it always works. Just go up slowly on the dose, you have to be psychologicly ready to be well when you take Parnate and being well can be a big surprise.
Bonne chance
