> He only began to claim things had been "too good" once the medication stopped working. WHY???? Because he's angry and frustrated that his treatment failed?
I do think your doctor was looking for an explanation as to why you would report feeling great one day and not feeling great susbsequently. My first doctors made the clinical error of interpreting this presentation as being a manifestation of a psychological pathology rather than a biological one. Perhaps your doctor hasn't seen enough treatment-resistant people to understand that you are more likely than others to exhibit tachyphylaxis (early poop-out), and that he might have to add adjunctive drugs on top of the Parnate; something he might be uncomfortable doing.
Has your doctor offered a plan to treat you if your response to Parnate remains inadequate?
