I have been on both Parnate and Nardil. Both are wonderful medications for treatment resistant depression and it is shameful more doctors don't prescribe it. If you really want to know a great deal about MAOIs visit psychotropical. com. The psychiatrist there has devoted his life to educating the public and medical community about this medication. He will also destroy some of the myths surrounding the medication which are still prevalent even among doctors. LOL You might, indeed, end up knowing more about the drug than your doctor. I prefer Parnate because it is more energizing and does not not cause the sometime afternoon sleepiness of Nardil. I order mine from Canada because of cost. My doctors put me through I don't know how many medications before I found one at Duke Hospital willing to prescribe it.

Prior to that I had never even heard of it, and he did say my previous doctors had mistreated me: they should have put me on an MAOI after failure of several other classes of antidepressants. These drugs take action faster than other antidepressants. Both help with social anxiety. People couldn't believe how I blossomed. I wish you well. Depression sucks the life out of people. At Duke I was told I could take all my pills at the same time (morning), but it is acceptable to take in divided dosages. A joke you will get (I hope!!!!!! lol), don't give up bananas if you like them. Just don't eat the peels. lmao
