Hi. I'm new to PsychoBabble and was looking to find some info about Nardil and Parnate. I've had treatment-resistant depression for 20 yrs and my psychiatrist and I are now considering MAOI's. Honestly, reading about all the side effects scares me. I also struggle with compulsive overeating. We've talked about Nardil, but because I already struggle with food, I'm worried about the weight gain. Does anyone know what percentage of people on Nardil actually gain weight? My psychiatrist suggested trying Parnate instead if I was worried. Can anyone tell me what Parnate is like vs. Nardil? I know this might sound superficial. I'm just trying to make the best descision for me based on my symptoms. I suffer from atypical depression, compulsive overeating, body dysphoric disorder, mild OCD, and I am in recovery from addiction. Thanks for any input. Noelle
