Good to hear, I got a script for seroquel today aswell, I reckon a strong nights sleep may prevent the fatigue.

> I've never experienced fatigue with Parnate; I get over-activated, which is why I take Atenolol (for akathisia) and Seroquel (for insomnia) and switch off between Ambien and Halcion (for insomnia, to prevent tolerance to one of the drugs).

> I am on 120 mg and it has changed my life. I noticed its AD effects beginning at 90 mg and with the increased dose, I am truly HAPPY for the first time in my life.

> I've been on Parnate now since October 06. Before that I was on it for about a year but the dose was too low.

> I have gained weight but I was severely anorexic when I started the medication, and given that I am on several meds that cause weight gain, it's hard to say which has done what. I started at 78 pounds (at a height of 5'3). I now weigh 115 - 120. But I needed to gain it and am at a healthy weight so it could be just resolution of anorexia nervosa.
