Hi,
You may recall from my previous posts that I've been taking MAOI Parnate for 20 years. I'm now 55. Had first major-depressive episode in 1984, after going through 15 years prior to that with recurring severe anxiety. I've tried 3 other ADs and it appears that Parnate is the only viable one for my depression. I accept the fact that I'll have to stay on it for the rest of my life. Every time I've tried going off, that godawful demon of depression returns to torment me sooner or later.
