> Ive tried all of the ssris - all made me soooo tired. couldnt stand the sedation.
> Ive heard a lot of talk about maois like nardil and parnate being effective for people. Are they much different from ssris, i mean, if your tired on the ssri's do maois have any potential?What about the tricyclics? There are many other antidepressants aside from the SSRIs. Have you talked to your doctor about other options? I do take Parnate (an MAOI), but I don't recommend jumping right to an MAOI without exploring other options first. The diet and other side effects aren't a minor issue.
Good luck,
Jessica
