Hello,I'm a guy, and pretty much every AD I've tried (including Welbutrin!) messed up my sexual desire or ability.
Finally I decided to try an MAOI. I'm been taking Parnate for about a week, and haven't been so interested in sex since I was a teenager. (before I became chronically depressed) No dysfunction, emotional numbness, or weight gain, either.
The dietary restrictions really haven't been a problem at all. After 7 years of unsuccessful fiddling with meds, I can't believe that a drug from 1959 is actually working for me.
I think anyone who hates the side-effects of the current generation of antidepressants should seriously consider MAOIs.
