At 50mg, I'm not sure how much NE potentiation occurs. You might be right about taking too little of this drug. You might be experiencing a withdrawal symptom of sorts early in the day. It is hard to tell. The more Seroquel you take, the less sedating it becomes. Since anxiety is a problem, why don't you go up to 100mg for a few days to see how you react to it. I'm not sure what you have to be afraid of.
I have never heard of the use of Parnate in the fashion that you describe. I know people who use low dosages of selegiline, though.
By the way, you can eat chocolate with MAOIs. I believe the contraindication originated from a single case report. Here, the person had eaten quite a bit of cheeze earlier in the day. I eat chocolate all the time while taking Parnate 80mg.
