I am bipolar II and have been on MAOI's my whole life. Parnate is the only MAOI not supposed to throw a BP into mania although it did me (then again, I am far from normal ;-) So when your doc says that an MAOI is not a good choice for a bipolar he is mistaken when it comes to Parnate. I took lamictal and broke out in one of those "oh-this-could-be-fatal" rashes that it can cause so that ended pretty quick. Now if you want weightloss and a close runner up to Lamictal go for Topomax.
