> The patch probably isn't going to be good for agitated depression though, will it? I think selegine is activating
My guess is that you're right about that. Selegiline will probably help a higher percentage of people who have atypical depression, the sort of people who are more likely to be helped by Parnate. But, everybody is different, and, as Dr. Bob says, YMMV. I always assumed that selegiline would be bad for people who suffered from anxiety. But pseudonym has had great success treating anxiety disorders with selegiline. So much so that pseudonym rarely posts anymore. I copied (w/ URL) one of the last posts on selegline I remember from pseudonym below.

Hello,I am pleased to report that selegiline (5mg bid) is working well. I take it in combination with 800mg of phenylalanine in the morning, and by itself in the midafternoon. I have been given SSRI's, but they just didn't do the trick for my diagnosis (generalized + social anixety). I can tell you this though, I've been doing so well, that I don't bother reading Psycho-Babble. So, in my case, there is truth to the notion that if you're feeling well, there not much motivation to read or post.
