I'm sleeeeepy on Parnate.
I read that the standard time to onset is usually a few weeks for tranylcypromine despite "clinical lore" (lol, nice term) of being faster than the hydrazines. Also, I guess sedation is not uncommon with it. I'm taking 10 mg in the a.m., at noon, and in the evening, so it's all very spread out. It has a short half-life so this makes sense to me.
Still waiting for it to really kick in. I figure if I have to ask, "is it working yet?", then it probably isn't. I'll likely need a dose increase at my followup, and by then I think we'll have given the receptors a chance to change at the lower dose.
Naps! I'm a good nap-taker now. It's like clockwork, one or two naps every day. I used up my leftover modafinil, which was helping that, but now it's all gone. I have to get this weird pseudo-narcolepsy thing figured out. I don't know if I want to add a C2 stimulant if I don't need to, and modafinil is too expensive.
Hah, that could be fun to ask for, "can I have some amphetamine so that I don't fall asleep all the freakin' time?"
