> I'm at 50 mg..for over a week and didn't think there was much change..however, I listened to music for the first time in a long time and actually went and visited a friend (I'm a self-isolator) and also phoned a couple of friends. So sometimes it helps to watch for the little subtle signs that it could be starting to work. The MAOI's seem to take longer to take effect, however, I had a much more robust effect to Parnate in the past, so I am worried it's only going to give me a partial response.

Thanks for reply.
I too had no difference at 50 mgs. for a week, but the side effects began, I believe, as I hit 60 mgs.
I know what you mean about the small changes to watch out for, I remember when those small changes happened to me - I'm also a self-isolator - and got better while I was on Daytrana.
Now I just keep my fingers crossed the Parnate will help.
When you say you had a robust effect to Parnate the first time, what differences did you feel?
I hope we both do well on Parnate.
Thank You For Your Time & Consideration,
Take Care & Be Well,
