> Yeah, I have given up on the SSRIs, only had a partial response and a lot of side effects.

Hmm, is that better or worse than no response and no side effects? :-)

(modafinil)

Concerta? (a new sustained-release formulation of methylphenidate)

> and possibly Desoxyn (sp?)

methamphetamine
(good luck)

Moclobemide? Jeez. I assume you're not in the USA. If you are, it's a waste of your energy (IMHO).

> Next stop, I figure is Desipramine (sp) and Parnate. Are these last two the "older" drugs you have in mind? From what I have read, these two seem to have the lowest side effect profile.

Desipramine is a tricyclic. Parnate (tranylcypromine) is a monoamine oxidase inhibitor. They're both old. They're among the more side-effect-free drugs in their respective classes.
