The Klonopin would help with anxiety, insomnia, and possibly mania. The mania from Nardil usually starts early in treatment and is self-limiting. Trileptal can be used as a mood stabilizer if necessary. If insomnia is an obstacle to feeling great on Nardil, then it is incumbent on your doctor to treat that insomnia aggressively as if it were your primary illness. Failure is not an option. Use Halcion along with another benzodiazepine if you have to. Perhaps 25 - 50 mg of Seroquel? Find a way.

> Thanks for the suggestions. Nardil + d-amphetamine is something I would love to try, but I have very little hope of having it prescribed. As I've mentioned before, I e-mailed a self-described specialist in treatment-resistant depression who claimed he was aware of studies indicating the usefulness of the combination, but considered it far too dangerous to utilize in practice.

Perhaps he needs more practice?

Have you found and printed material indicating the safety of such combinations to show your doctors? Being on Parnate + TCA + stimulants hasn't killed me. I wish I had the name of a good doctor for you. Where do you live? Which universities are close to you? I might be able to come up with some names for you. Perhaps you can arrange for a consultation with another doctor who would then have a conversation with your current doctor?

Do you have the antipsychotic, asenapine (Saphris), there?
