completing ECT? I have been struggling with Parnate for 3 weeks (it's like taking Thorazine, I can't even talk or walk straight), would love to go back to Prozac.....the best 18 months I ever had.

Geeezer, dopamine agonists can cause this stiffness you are talking about. Perhaps you are getting a bit too much dopamine from the parnate and have developed a "dyskinisia" from Parnate. Have you ever consulted the wonder psychopharmacology textbook "Kaplan and Saddock?" It contains a wonderful section on MAOIs as well as other useful info on neuroleptic induced movement disorders and a whole bunch of other stuff psychopharmacology related. Anyway, Kaplan and Saddock has an excellent MAOI section. Check your local medical library for a copy if you cant afford to get a copy yourself from Amazon.com or Barnes and Noble.Howdy Doody
