> Hey Vicmack, I thought i had responded to you a couple of days ago, but I probably never hit "submit." It's great to hear from someone in my exact situation. Let's keep in touch since our situations are identical.Are you depressed or bipolar? How long have you been on the Wellbutrin for? My doctor is trying that on me in the next couple of weeks. In my experience, and I'm not a doctor or a nutritionist, vitamins or fish oils aren't going to help for depression. I say that because I've tried all of them and I'd rather you save the money. I have tried every ssri, snri, and every augmentation strategy and nothing workedd. The only MAOI that I've tried is Parnate and my doctor thinks it would be foolish to just switch to Nardil. I hope to hear from you soon. If you want we can figure out a way to exchange emails, but I'd rather not put mine on the board just in case my employer Google's me one day and thinks I'm crazy or something.

Yes it is great to find someone in pretty much the same situation! I am on Parnate for depression and Social Phobia. I really lack energy or interest for anything and just feel really hopeless. Parnate was meant to be the " magic bullet " and I did get my hopes up but I really doubt it's going to do anything after this long. I have read so many peoples experiences with it and how at the start some people would get little "highs" after taking there dose and most people had a AD effect in the in the 1-3 week mark. I only came across one guy who said it took more then 8 weeks to work but he was suffering a lot of side effects and building his dose up super slow.
I stopped the wellbutrin yesterday after 3 weeks because i ran out and it's kind of annoying to get another script as my Parnate doctor wouldn't augment so I had to go behind his back.
Like you I have tried a lot of meds. Only the TCA's i haven't been able to get my hands on. I would have liked to mix parnate and a TCA to be honest.
Have you had any more good days yet ?
