I`ve try to not start a (verbal) fight, I was even aware that it was the Parnate that induced me that agressivity.. but still.. after trying 2 minutes.. I've done it.. started to give her crap about the issue and many other things.. whatever..

> MartyMarty, Marty, Marty, What am i going do with you?? 5mgs. made you aggressive?? You are a sensitive young man, eh? Are you normally super sensitive to medications?
Just a thought...please don't get pissed :) Perhaps you are imagining, or over analyzing things. Maybe you were just having a bad morning...and it had nothing to do with the Parnate?? You have been under A LOT of stress lately..you are intitled to a bad mood you know. I could be wrong..but i really doubt your first dose of only 5mgs is going to do much of anything.
Marty, I just don't want you to "Psych yourself" out of a good trial on Parnate. Because if it does work for you, it could change your whole life! You know i'm only trying to help, okay? And if Parnate isn't the right med for you i am still going to be your friend and support and help you in any way i can. :)
Another thought, maybe it's still withdrawal from Nardil. Your brain is going through a lot of chemical changes, going off Nardil, on Parnate for a few Days, off Parnate, Now back on Parnate....plus you didn't sleep for awhile, see what i'm saying Marty??...it could be a combination of all of the above. Hang in there Bud, try to relax..take some Klonopin :)
Oh yea, the crying part...simple, you are becoming a woman!!! (just kidding of course). :) Again, you've been through a lot, and your brain has been through a lot of changes in the last 2 weeks. Hang tough my friend, and seriously take some Klonopin.
