Hi.
Right I am not on an anti-depressant because there is nothing left for me to try. I have been MAOIs and Parnate was the last drug I was taking. I am BP type two so I am taking Trileptal and Clonazapam as mood stabiliers. I take thorazine to help me sleep sometimes.
I can't get selegiline in Canada. I have been on anafranil, desipramine, Pamelor .... I can list 40 meds I have tried.
No more meds.
