As a former moclobemide user, I had a really tough time tolerating this med beyond a few days. It caused the things you mentioned, and especially raised my aggitation and anger level. I read at the website, http://www.mentalhealth.com , that moclobemide shouldn't be used in 'aggitated' patients. My mood was just really foul, kinda like on Wellbutrin, and I did experience a *tiny* mood lift once in awhile, but I was just so miserable after a few days. I also found even my usual dose off a benzo didn't help at all.If you are looking for a lift from a combo of atypical depression, with serious anxiety, I found smaller than normal doses of Prozac and also EffexorXR helpful. After 10 or so years of trials, that is my conclusion for now. I just thought maybe you had atypical depression with anxiety (and some 'rapid cycling' issues..more along the anxiety lines, though) as we have had similar responses.
I hope that helps somewhat..
