Sorry EMSAM turned out to not be helpful for you.
I do have some reason to think EMSAM may be of benefit to me, though.
Years ago, before I was diagnosed with asthma (and pdoc's would Rx me MAOI's), I had very positive experiences with two: Pargyline/Eutonyl (an MAOI then marketed as an antihypertensive - very activating), and Nardil which was great, but I started feeling a bit TOO good (hypomania) after a few months.
The only class of antidepressants I've ever liked - MAOI's. I have such bad reactions to the others.
Will go slow on the EMSAM, plus we know about my Bipolar Spectrum stuff now, and which mood stabilizers work for me.
Thanks,
zero
