Well, since you did well on Parnate, I'd suggest Nardil...

I don't know much about the serotonin thing you mentioned; Nardil is MAO substrate nonselective so it will increase serotonin levels (but then again, Parnate is also nonselective and that worked for you.)

Lots of Parnate responders have done well on Nardil and vice versa (myself included) when one or the other pooped out.

Have you thought about/used:
Selegiline/Emsam (MAO-B selective at lower doses) or Wellbutrin/bupropion (NE-DA reuptake inhibitor)?

I have stopped working for the moment, I'm on sick leave with anxiety and depression....etc, you all understand. I've been like this for 20+ years. I've quickly established a medical support network. Great Dr/GP, psychologist and tomorrow I'm seeing a new psychiatrist. SUGGESTION PLS. I can't take anything that touches serotonin at all. So it's been a long and really tricky ride as I only just discovered the serotonin factor around 4-5 years ago.
