In reply to what does Parnate do for you?, posted by rjlockhart04-08 on July 2, 2010, at 18:23:24

I've been taking Parnate at 40 mg/day for about 4 weeks now. Unfortunately, I can't say I notice it's doing much of anything for my depression, anhedonia, or motivational issues. My anxiety was fairly low when I started it, and still is. But honestly all I notice is that I often feel tired for an hour or so after taking Parnate. For me, its not at all stimulating. I started drinking a couple of cups of coffee each day, and that balances out the sedation. On the positive side though, I haven't really noticed any side effects other than the sedation.

Matt- you would have to stop eating cheese (except possibly mozzarella). Its not the worst thing in the world, and I'd be 100% fine with it if the MAOI was actually working. Since it is isn't working for me AND I have to give up cheese, it is a bit cumbersome. The MAOI diets do seem overcautious though about some things. I've drank coffee, ate chocolate, and drank bottled domestic beer, gin, and vodka.
