No, you don't sound like a baby . Just someone who is suffering. :(
I feel so bad that you are feeling so rotten.I wish there was something I could do, or even suggest.
I am thinking of you, sending you lots of love and strength and praying that you get through this awful period.
:(((
Love

When I was on parnate the insomnia resolved and I began to sleep well.
Some one used a combo of klonopin and sublingual melatonin to sleep and found it very effective.
May the Gods that created our universe be with you.

No, I didn't sleep last night. I almost ended up hurting myself very badly because I was in so much pain.
I got the Ativan today and took 2 mg as prescribed. It didn't knock me out. It just made me sleepy and stoned. Will try 4 mg tonight.

I took 6 mg and slept like a baby. I emailed my pdoc to let him know that it took 3 times what he prscribed to knock me out. Maybe tonight I can take 4 mg since I have some sleep in me.

That's good news.
Really hope things pan out. Particularly am hoping that the suicidal thoughts are gone or are at least receding..Wishing you all the best

Jeez, Maxime--I don't know--I'm sorry. I'm assuming you feel pretty awful. Besides calling or e-mailing you doc asap. Any other centre available to you where they can prescribe? Obviously this isn't working. And I recall tradzedone was a bust?
I would start a new thread with a specific heading in addition to this one maybe?
I'm thinking of you,

Maxie maybe 12 hours of sleep was too much and you'll sleep again tonight. I'd try same thing. Worked once should work again? Love Phillipa

My insomnia used to be unbearable to treat. But your're on an maoi so your options are more limited. Don't fall into the Micheal Jackson horror. See the doc will contact tomorrow read ahead. Love Phillipa can you lie down and relax or try to?

It's excellent news! I really love Parnate. It's the only AD that works this fast for me and is effective. Cymbalta at its best wasn't this good. High praise for Parnate!!!

Again, feeling great today. I have to say that when I start to feel so good I always worry that I will wake up the next day and feel bad again. I am so scared that this good feeling will be taken away from me.

Argh, so annoyed. The pharmacy didn't have my Parnate today ... they have to order it. Why do they always have to order it. I guess I am the only person taking it but still, I need it on a regular basis. Pooh on them!! Now I have to return tonight after 6 pm.
Anyhow, I am not up to 80 mg of Parnate and that is where I will sit for now. No more augmenting.
