As you know atypical depression is a mix of anxiety (social phobia/GAD/panic) and depression.
Wellbutrin and other stimulants cause too much anxiety. Serotonin-reuptake inhibitors, trycyclics and anti-psychotics don't help. Nardil is the only thing that's really helped, but I will not deal w/ the weight gain. Plus, it pooped out. I had no luck w/ Parnate, and Seligiline is too stimulative. What's left?The Miami sun helps a little, but not when I'm inside working all day. Granted, if I was in NYC I'd would be screwed. But at least I be part of the Gepirone study at Columbia.
