> fbThe second time I tried parnate I didn't get the stim ritalin effect after each dose. Also did not get insomnia accept for a few days. I also did not get the fatigue as I felt the first trial. I think everytime you try the same drug you may get different results because your brain chemistry may be different.
I also get a kindof happy buzzed feeling on neurontin 800 mg 3 times a day. Has been my mainstay drug for about 6 months.
When I tried using parnate and adding the neurontin they seemed to cancel each other out so for right now I'm sticking with the neurontin because it gives me a nice happy feeling and I become more sociable.
Maybe after the winter I might give parnate a shot by itself. problem is in the winter I get colds and can't use any of the cold meds with the parnate.
In spite of some the failures you read about parnate in babble in the real world it has a high success rate for those that can tolerate it. I haven't found the sides that bad when i tried it. Seems more calming after a while than the ssris and less hormonal disruption because it works on all the neurotransmiters.
