Hi Cecilia,
I appreciate your reports because I don't know where I'm going either with this drug. I don't have any recommedations, I just wanted to throw out some comments. It being a new drug (at least a new delivery method) I have the impression that most doctors are reluctant to recommend anything outside the manufacturer's instructions. Fortunately there is a lot of data out there about selegiline and possible augmention strategies. I think that's where we are headed eventually. There are some studies that show that l-phenylaline enhances the effect. I've had good results with combining it with Lyrica to help with sleep and anxiety. Benzos have been helpful for some people. I think we are the guinea pigs in a way. I imagine pyschiatrists and pharma reps are looking at these anecdotal reports with a lot of interest.
I also wanted to mention that I have not found Lunesta to be useless as some have mentioned. My sleep doctor has me cycling back and forth between Restoril and Lunesta. As I mentioned in a thread above, I've also benefited from taurine and tryptophan.
best of luck and warm regards, Jake
