Have you thought of wellbutrin? For many, it is quite energizing, so someone with AT depression might like it. Unfortunately, it seems to make me tired--go figure. Another suggestion would be nardil, if parnate worked before, it may be worth trying.
Have you given SSRI's an adequate trial at at "therapeutic dose." Also, you might want to try to augment an ssri with zyprexa--that would be a very ambitious move, however, some people though rave about the combo. If you have already not had success with Celexa, I would hold off on Lexapro and try some other things. . . .
Another thought is maybe you could go back on parnate, I have heard from several places that after a break from one drug that pooped out, it starts working again. Just a thought.
