I know about some of the literature available.
I suppose, Larry, that you have been subjected to the Paxil, and Zyprexa combination?.I'm not sure If I am as med sensitive as you, or it is simply the fact that I do my research and the thought of taking paxil and zyprexa again gives my psychosomatic symptoms!!
Anyhow, you may have read my post on the Alternative. I did some research on MAO-B inhibiting herbs. I found fo-ti, which some suggest is the most potent MAO-B inhibiting herb available.
I took it with some DL Phenylalanine. It gave me an almost immediate AD effect that I havn't felt in years. Something I had to jog for HOURS to get. I'm proabably trying to get the PEA boost that exercise gives.
But now I'm even more depressed, since I know that taking this herb is not terrably reliable, and I don't want to be on the rollercoaster that varying potency can present.
The fact is, in many doctor's eyes, I'm not old enough to be treatment resistant. Plus, I already told my doctor that the clomipramine was working because quite frankly I felt embarrased to complain one more time.
I don't know, maybe I'll start smoking or something.
