I think most of what people hear about Parnate being addictive is not true. Addicted to what? After the initial Amphetamine like kick which lasts about a week (for me) you don't get a high from it. What you do get is a steady antidepressant and antianxiety effect. I've been on it for almost 3 months, and this talk of addiction makes me laugh. Seriously, some people feel good when they take their prozac or zoloft, so can they become addicted to these meds as well? I can see being addicted to stimulants that give you a lift for a long period of time. But parnates "kick" is short lived, and it doesn't return by increasing the dose, so i guess anythings possible but i just don't believe in "Parnate Addiction."
