> Hi Alexander:
> I'm female. I am getting good sleep on the Parnate. The amytriptyline gave me wonderful sleep but tired all day. The Nortriptyline is giving me good sleep without the fatigue, and maybe a little more AD effect. I'm glad to be sleeping expecially since I'm also taking Provigil. The three together (Parnate, Provigil and Nortriptyline) are GREAT for me right now!! My libido is very good. I don't even think about it because before Parnate I was on Wellbutrin for many years and never had a libido problem with that, either. I guess I've been really lucky. Parnate is excellent!
>So glad to hear some succes stories. If I try AD's again, I will try yours minus the provigil, if my then pdoc has even heard of parnate. My last and only one didn't know that wellbutrin was an antidepressant when I asked him to augment my lexapro with it. Here in denmark it is solely a smoking cessation aid.
