The link below will lead you to my post of all the meds I have tried.

I was on 80 -100 mg of Parnate since December 2002. It pooped out. I have been in a suicidal depression for months now. Finally, I told my doctor that I didn't think the Parnate was working. I was scared to tell him because I am at the end of the line in terms of meds. Nardil is a "re-try".
Phillipa:
I am bipolar type 2 and anorexic (but my weight is stable right now). My mood stabilisers are trileptal and Klonopin. Trileptal was the last mood stabiliser for me to try and thankfully it works. And I take Adderall XR to combat the exhaustion I had on the Parnate. I take synthroid but because I am hypothyroid and I am not using it as a psych med.I am in Canada so I cannot try some the meds that are available in the US like Lexapro or Cymbalta and a couple of others as well. Besides I doubt that anything would help.
There is a percentage of people who will never find relief from medication. I guess I am in that group. But I can't continue to live like this because I am not living. So I think you know where that leaves me and that is probably the option I will take. I just can't screw it up this time.

> What meds were you on before, and what are you on now? I've noticed tons of people use MAO's. Is it because no SSRI's or other atipical AD's work for you? Or is it the country you live in. I don't know of anyone who takes them around here NC,VA, where I worked in the field until I became ill. Maxine, what other drugs are you taking, and what is your dx if I may ask. Fondly, Phillipa
