Hi Peanut,
Is there any possibility that you could reduce your dose of Parnate to help with the insomnia? You said that you thought Parnate was a major contributor to the insomnia.
The insomnia is obviously very severe and so I really think you should consider this, under the supervision of your doctor. Now that you're taking nortriptyline, a lower dose of Parnate might be sufficient for your depression. What do you think? Taking so many drugs for sleep is not a solution. There are risks involved and it's not even working.
Posters have suggested Zyprexa instead of Seroquel. I do think this might help but it could lead to binge eating, which I believe you said was a problem for you.
Also, how are you taking Parnate at the moment? What dose - and how are the doses spread out across the day? Your regimen needs to be reconsidered.
