> Is anyone on Parnate? Has your motivation improved? Has it helped you make changes in your life?

Hi Roger,
I've been on 80mg of Parnate for a month after being between 75mg and 105mg of Nardil for years. I think it is starting to kick in. No major depression at this point. Maybe some dysthymia. I believe my motivation has improved some. I had one failed trial on Parnate about seven years ago. I don't think we pushed the dosage enough or tried augmentation with lithium or stimulants. This time, I'm going to do whatever it takes to make this med work.

> Any side-effects- sleeplessness?

My main side effect is afternoon somnolence. After work, it is very hard to get by without a nap. Of course, this adds to nightime insomnia which I am treating with 25 to 50mg of Seroquel.

> I feed better but sleep is difficult.

Again,I find Seroquel is the best for my insomnia.

Hope it works for you,
Jedi
