Thanks for the encouragement Roslynn :) I hope the Parnate helps you. I know washouts are very difficult, but I have been on Nardil before, and I'm telling you, MAOIs are absolutely wonderful, and well worth the washouts, the food restrictions, and the drug interactions you have to worry about. I wish you the best! Oh, do you have benzos to help you through your washout? If not, be sure to ask your pdoc for some, they really help. Hang in there and take care :)
Kat> That is good news. Sounds like you have a progressive doc too. I really hope the combination will work.

I can now focus on a book (I love to read), and that's always a GOOD indicator of improvement of my mood. So some tentative thanks to you both, Jono and Scott :)
