NO!
NO NO NO NO NO!
Read the intructions. If you mix an SSRI with an MAOI your brain will cook in seratonin syndrome or Neuroleptic malignant syndrome. Makes people vegetables.
SSRIs bite. I know they get mixed- but it's kind of like mixing a Red Hot with a LemonHead. Oookey- but all sugar.
If you want The Stuff, you'll have to find a doctor who'll do them- or put your foot down with yours. Then wash out two to four weeks dependent on the half life of the junk that doesn't work now because you can seize if they mix in your brain.
It's totally worth it- but these are the real drugs that work, not the nut on Lilly's fleet of Gulfstreams. They don't mix.
You feel like crap because your on a drug designed to make stockholders happy, not you. You need to get on your Psydoc about it. Or get an advocate on the doc, and find out if he has stock options in the company.
