I wonder how you would react to stimulants if coffee puts you to sleep. They might do the same. Stimulants put me to sleep as I've mentioned previously - yet coffee does wake me up (though the side effects can be hard to take.)I think Linkadge's suggestion makes sense. Also, have you tried another SSRI that isn't as sedating as citalopram? If those adjustments don't work out, then Parnate sounds very reasonable. But then, I'm sure you know all of this and you're thinking out loud more than anything else.
