Parnate definitely seems to have more 'action' on dopamine and norepinephrine than serotonin. So there is not just this massive increase in serotonin levels (& what not) and nothing else basically. So the SSRI apathy & anhedonia (which i understand is a result of diminished dopamine activity) is far less likely to occur with Parnate.
> I wonder why the seratonin action in the parnate doesnt bother people the way that seratonin action in SSRIs does? This is the thing that makes me wary of Parnate. I just came off effexor which I hated, and it works on all these, so will I have the same reaction to parnate?
