I should call the pharmacy I filled my selegiline pills at to find out what dose I was taking. (It seemed to make me anxious as hell and prone to anger, like Wellbutrin--did that happen to you?)

Never tried any other MAOI's. Oral selegiline pills work differently. Did you try the Emsam patch? Emsam did not make me anxious or angry. I did not get much positive from Emsam until I went up to 9mg. Just affects sleep. The other meds I'm on may help with anxiety. Hope you find a combo that works.
