Good for you for giving it a try. Who knows? It might have worked. I definitely agree that you were smart to quit with those side effects, and I admire you for going four days. (I only lasted one dose, remember!)

I can't remember if you said you had tried Prozac. It's a very decent AD, in my opinion. (The newer SSRI's and Effexor don't appear to work any better, and seem to often do awful things to people).

I still think Parnate "might" be perfect for you. It is a pretty serious drug, but if you've tried SSRI's, Welbutrin, TCA's without results it's very logical to go to the MAOI's, and your concern about low energy and weight gain would make Parnate my first choice (Nardil is better for social anxiety, but DOES usually cause weight gain).
