> Why exactly are you doing the survey? And can you do it really scientifically, like, what percentage of success stories involved weight loss vs. weight gain, did any include hypertensive crises (the main argument put forth to deter patients from taking Parnate), what were the highest doses tolerated?, etc. --all that kind of stuff.
Yeah, my study will be a real cracker! I know all sorts of statistics so I can do it. It's gonna be all those types of things you mention plus how MAOIs compare to SSRIs and TCAs.I love anecdotes: your hearing right from the horses mouth. I have thousands of anecdotes in my files from responses from all sorts of psychiatric drugs. Clinical reports and reports from MDs sometimes can be distorted, not too mention grossly bias.
I mean some shrinks foolishly think an 'better looking' 'objective' patient is more important than a better feeling 'subjective patient'. Anyhow, most of them are objectively nuts in my opinion!
Take Care,
Ace.
