On a similar note...
A few of you mentioned lately that you had tried or were still taking selegiline. Anybody still taking it for mood effects and finding it helpful for anhedonia and drive? It seems everybody has a go with it but no one sticks with it for long. Guess it's one of those drugs that looks great on paper, but no so hot in practice.
Back a couple of years ago, I tried a daily regimen, but from what I remember, I seem to notice the side effects of anxiety and tension more than anything else. Perhaps I need to have another go but with a lower dosage. I was fairly disappointed in the FDA's denial of the patch form. It seems like it would be an improvement on the side effects. Would love to know if anybody considers the oral dosage a viable therapy still.
Any details on the pros and cons of it will be very much apprecitated. Thanks
