I do hope the substitution of vortioxetine for parnate does the trick, Scott.
I tried vortioxetine between stopping parnate and then resuming it, unsuccessfully - the main effects were agitation and hyper-sexuality. However, my psychiatrist at the time, a specialist in TRD, had done his own study of the drug with 100 of his own TRD patients, and overall it was successful.
At one point I had looked into the properties of the drug, and it seemed to be rather similar to Abilify *without* the dopamine antagonism. That was only my initial impression.
