Hi Stargazer:
Thanks so much for your supportive post! It really is hard for some of us to find something that works!!
I'm happy that your Nardil plus Wellbutrin is working for you!! It gives me hope that I might find something too!
My pdoc is pretty good with trying things with me. I did take a TCA with Parnate. And I do take a stimulant with Parnate, Provigil. But he says absolutely no on taking Wellbutrin unless I go totally off Parnate and washout for two weeks! I've gone to him a long time so I do trust him with my personal reaction to drugs.
He asked me if I was interested in trying another MAOI like Ensam, Nardil or Marplan. After such a reaction to Parnate, which seems to have the fewest side effects generally, I'm not very enthusiastic about trying another one.
I may try some Ritalin with the Parnate I'm on, but Ritalin makes me so depressed I'm not holding my breath!
And on and on it goes.
Thanks again, Stargazer, and good luck to you!!
