> Atypical depression is probably my main problem- extreme fatigue is a prominent part of my depression. Hopefully the maoi will help- so far, not so much. I've head of CBT- it's probably worth a try; I might look into it eventually.yeah i had the same problem too... slept way too much... Parnate fixed that for me... though it's still early (4 weeks or so)
> Exercise definitely helps when I can force myself past my fatigue to participate. I definitely feel more energized and in better spirits afterwards, at least for a short while.
yep i agree... does a lot for me... maybe if i learned some moderation i could do it more than 2 times a week?
> I find I'm feeling *more* antisocial and withdrawn lately since starting Parnate. Maybe the fatigue again, maybe an adjustment period.... at first i felt more agitated and antisocial... but just recently i have become more social...
maybe it just makes things more interesting? i don't know... but i do know things would definately be tougher without it....
and i also remember a person posting that it took them 3 months before they really felt decent anti-anxiety effects, .. so it might be worth your while to hang in there....
and i guess if it doesn't work, you may do well on Nardil....>very careful. I had a grilled chicken sandwich for lunch- perhaps the meat wasn't fresh. It also could have been a spontaneous reaction, which can happen with Parnate. As long as it doesn't happen again....
that is weird... the only things i avoid are soy sauce, marmite, alcohol, aged cheese and cavear
do you have any underlying risk factors?
i'm a 27 year old male
btw how long have you been on Parnate ?
