MAOIs are on my short list. I am trying to get into Columbia's expert evaluation service and am waiting on a call back to get an updated diagnosis. I've often wondered if the irritability indicates some sort of bipolarity and one pdoc suggested bipolar II, but I really just think it's a symptom of either my ocd or depression or just a personality flaw. When I am off everything it is probably my primary symptom. I wonder if that means anything. And even 20mg of prozac seems to mask it.
