>That octopamine decrease norepinephrine is just a theory so far with no proof to back it up. But who knows?

Exactly, who knows? I've seen some very knowledgeable people whom I would trust saying this. Let's just say many people have positive results with Wellbutrin and Parnate for a good reason yet again who knows why with pharmacodynamics of Welly being so complicated.



A few more thoughts on GINKGO and why NOT to try it:

- In the US supplements (and herbs especially in most other countries) are poorly regulated, with herbal source material such as Ginkgo there is just no way of knowing how much is too much, it can vary greatly from from manufacturer to manufacturer, bottle to bottle and pill to pill.

- Ginkgo biloba may itself be an MAOI. The data are conflicting, you may wind up with a hell of a lot less MAO than you expected.
