I was told by one research team not to "pulse" antidepressants. This is particularly true of using the same one over and over. Another invesigative physician told me to stay as clean as possible. If there were nothing new to try, to avoid taking anything at all.

I am very glad you are not acting impulsively, as hard as I know that is. Not only will you give yourself more time to decide on new treatment strategies, you will find yourself giving each new treatment more time to work.

I may be wrong, but I have often thought that Nardil poops-out considerably more often than Parnate, even before coming to this website.
