> Hello again everyone,

> I thought I'd start a thread on atypical depression. I only recently foud out about this subtype of depression, and I seem to fit all the criteria, i.e. mood reactivity, oversleeping, overeating, chronic fatigue and rejection sensitivity, early onset.
>
> I've been on escitalopram and St John's Wort with no success whatsoever. Had a bried trial with mirtazapine that left me feeling like a zombie, and am currently trying reboxetine (early days yet). Given all the literature suggesting that MAOIs work best in atypical depression I would like to give that a go, but doctor won't hear of it.

> Just thought it would be useful to share experiences with anyone who's up againts the same sort of symptoms. I've read quite a bit on the net about the possibility of combining low dose deprenyl with DLPA- anyone had success with that?

> InesIf your Pdoc won't utilize some of the best, in my opinion the best (MAOI's) then i would definitely find a different pdoc. Good luck.
