Just wanted to share.....
I have been overlapping the 6 mg patches lately, leaving the old one on and putting a new one on several hours early. Helped a bit. Not a lot though.I had my Dr. call me in the 9 mg as I have just been feeling depressed. The difference is Night and Day! overlapping the patches was not a good indication of how much the 9 mg ones would help me.
I feel fantastic today!I am so very grateful for this relief.
I come here to gripe so I thought it only fair to rave for a change.

That is indeed good news and yet additional confirmation that the 6mg patch is pretty much worthless.

Congrats! I'm happy for you. Have you ever tried selegiline via any other delivery method, i.e. oral or sublingual?

The 6mg got to where it was like nothing at all.
It was great for easing withdrawal from stims though. No substitute but made it bearable.
I am having a little bit of anxiety and feel aggressive at times just like when I started Emsam. For me these sides passed quickly and still beat the heck out of laying in bed most of the day.

Nope. But have been very curious about it.
I have been reading about deprenyl for years, wanting to try it. I wonder what the difference is....I will not be insured again till November and this stuff costs 460.00 per month!
Have you taken the oral form??

> KayeNot yet; waiting for it to arrive (5 mg tablets). I'll just be using it as a minor augmentation, though, so real low doses, not as my primary AD. I don't know how you guys manage to pay full price for the patches, though. That price is just unbelievable. Hope it keeps working for you, though.
