> I don't get it I thought Parnate especially was supposed to give you a lot of energy???? Why would you take it if it doesn't sounds like a depressing drug as I said I don't get it????Love Phillipa
You should know by now from reading on this drug that its not black and white phillipa.What drug is?Parnate is activating,but its not a stimulant or claimed to be one,so along with a stimulant effect there will be various other effects,inlcuding sedating type effects.
If this wasnt the case parnate would simply be a stimulant which it is not.
As for the poster and the situation on having a date,well guy 20 mg is know where near therputic,not even close,especialy with all these formualtion changes.
Also unless u hit the right dose,and then add something like klonpin,parnate will never posess the same effect as nardil,nardil is a different form of drug altoghter,as well as having an extreme differance of parnate due to nardils very unique effect on gaba.
Parnate i believe decreases gaba so its more for a cant get out of bed depression than a anxiety or social effect.
The latter is my problem,however due to tons of reading i have no personal doubt the formulation change had a dramatic effect on nardil,and its not the GOLD STANDERD it once was,or else id leave parnate for it in a heart beat.Now it seems absurd high doses as with parnate are needed for nardil,as well as side effects from hell,weight gain,sexual dysfuntction,and it seems they both will act the same given parnate is used in conjunction with gaba drugs,so im not willing to go on nardil as i would have in the past.
Phillipa,no insult,but you being such a veteran here should not leave doubt in posters minds by contributing to confused information,as with emsam you waited so long and collected so much information on it,yet we never heard about it again,assuming u did not take it,but u seemed terrified of it.
