Hello Bob,
Now you can hear the other side of the story and get a balanced view. I've never taken Nardil, but was put on Parnate back in 1984 during my first depressive episode. I had tried, for practical reasons only, to switch to Remeron (which pooped out), then Zoloft (which I disliked for various reasons), then Moclobemide (which is a fully different kind of MAOI, but it probably made my depression worse). I will probably be taking Parnate every day for the rest of my life since I have a chronic tendency toward major depression. But I've long accepted this, since Parnate has been my life-saver. If you have any other questions, please ask us self-appointed MAOI experts. We know more than many of the pdocs out there, who go on enjoying their ride on the SSRI bandwagon.
