> when i was in the Maudsley hospital, they told me it was better to stick to one medication if possible - and now Im already taking two, plus oxazepam for sleep. Have you had good experiences adding noritryptiline? I looked it up and it is an ssri, so I would have thought it would be contraindicated for use with an maoi?
SSRIs are as you say contraindicated with MAOIs, but Nortriptyline is a TCA and a very potent norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor. I've read a couple of success stories on this site when Parnate and Nortriptyline was combined. But i would personally wait and see how Parnate works out for you before adding any other medications.
