Hopefully the atomoxetine will work for you but if you decide to try the AMP just start at a really low dose and go from there. If you really want to take AMP you could try a TCA like Nortrip but it sounds like the Parnate is working well so why change unless you have to. Clonazapam is probably my favorite benzo for long term treatment of anxiety issues. Xanax is best for panic attacks and halcion with ambien is best for sleep.

>Hi ATHEOI,
I'm a little confused.Was this post intended for d/r or for me (Jade)? When you post a message, if you click on the box that says previous poster you can get it to who you want by starting with message to you. Hope that makes sense.
Top paragraph I posted to you? No, I have no desire to add AMP to Parnate (or any MAOI) I'm too chicken for that. I don't want Strattera either, I was just asking d/r what he thought of it and we disgarded the idea. What I DO WANT is Ritalin. I took it for years, know it well, and know that it should clear up this crazy lethargy and fatigue I'm feeling. Maybe not tho. Any ideas? Giving up Parnate is not an option at this time. I've come too far to quit now!! Just need some energy.
I asked d/r about klonopin cause he got some today, I may have asked you also, anyway, I take 3mg per day for nerve pain but never feel anything. Amazing how some people feel on top of the world when they take benzos. They just make me tired, hah.
