> I just got prescription for parnate? You think I will have less weigh gain and sexual side effects?
Yes, those side effects are less common with Parnate. I rarely have sexual problems from ADs, but I gained a lot of weight on Nardil (more than you did) and none on Parnate.
The insomnia is a problem with both MAOIs (and Marplan as well), although my experience was that I didn't feel tired -- I woke up feeling refreshed after a brief but uninterrupted night of sleep.
Good luck with the Parnate!
