> You're living in Thailand with major depression? That's impressive, especially when you have to do things like get your own Parnate from the U.S. I live right here at home in the good ole US of A, and due to my illness/anxiety, I really don't think I'd do well in some foreign country halfway around the world.

> My hat goes off to you.Thanks Bob, but I guess I somehow misled you about the sequence of events. I moved back here in '99, was taking Parnate up until the winter of 2002 (returning each year to the U.S. to get a new supply), but decided to try Remeron (to avoid the necessary trips for the Parnate) in Jan. 2002. It pooped out later, I switched to Zoloft, which I didn't like, then tried Moclobemide, which did nothing, and plunged into the severest depression ever by the end of last year. I had to return to the U.S. in March of this year to obtain a new supply of Parnate. It kicked in after 3 weeks, and I feel as good as new. Thank God, I survived the trip back to the U.S. and back here again, and got my happy life back, after re-starting the Parnate.
But as you implied, life ain't no barrel of fun in Bangkok when you're suffering from major depression.
