Weird how biological this thing is, you know? One would think that you could simply "think" your way out of it. There's no blood. Unfortunately, the shifts in perception and the injury to the psyche is quite real.
I'm sorry to hear that Parnate did not work out for you. Nardil and Marplan are alternatives, of course. I can't advise you on the Ritalin. I have no real experience with it. I tried it once in combination with Parnate, but it just made me uncomfortable and somewhat irritable. For me, Dexedrine feels "smoother".
I hope find an answer.
