The anorgasmia might be due to the serotonergic effects of Parnate. SSRIs do the same thing. It's not usually a problem with Parnate, but I suspect the high dose and rapid titration has something to do with that. There's an antihistamine called cyproheptadine that blocks 5-HT2A receptors which can temporarily reverse serotonin-induced anorgasmia. You take it an hour or so before sexual activity a bit like Viagra etc. Being an antihistamine it also makes you sleepy, so probably best to time sex when you're already ready for bed. I suppose it might also be an effective sleep aid.
