Can Parnate help ANXIETY?

[P***@gmail.com]

I have compared the maoi drugs Nardil and Parnate.
I take Nardil with wonderful results. I have Social Anxiety,Panic and
atypical-depression/"neurotic depression".
My doctor is pretty sure my anxiety is a GABA release issue (Nardil
enhances GABA)

Parnate seems like it was made for people that just can't get off the
floor. I have the depression like, im able to function...just not at
full capacity and like a constant dark cloud of low mood and -
JITTERINESS-...this is why nardil is helping my inhibitions....
This is why Neurontin helped too I believe.
I wanna stick with the nardil for some time, because its working
wonders.

I recommended my mom check out Parnate, she has the kind of depression
where she has a high paying job, but just spends all of her free time
in bed.
I think PARNATE could possible help her depressive syndrome in this
fashion??
What do you think? She does not have anxiety at all.

I dunno.....
with all of my -SEVERE- anxiety issues would me taking -Parnate- just
be
asking for a panic attack and or stroke in pill form?,lol
Or does it have some kind of anti-anxiety effect at all???

PS..
I heard adding a low dose TCA to Nardil
can help with chronic headaches. Should I give this a try?

I like Trazadone, Clomipramine,and Mirtazapine. But it's hard to
recommend non-reversible MAOIs, as they interact with foods. I would
suggest a reversable MAOI. Moclobemide is good.

Many medications might work for her. What she really needs to do is go see a
psychiatrist to discuss them. From what you say, there is no obvious reason
to prefer Parnate to anything else, and Parnate has some significant
drawbacks.

Parnate is officially for "Major Depressive Episode without Melancholia",
while Nardil is for "Depression (especially Atypical, Non-endogenous,
Neurotic), with anxiety, phobia, or hypochondria; Depression (Endogenous,
less evidence of usefulness)."

What you *should* do is talk to your doctor. You need to be cautious about
drug interactions when you are taking Nardil.
