I found Parnate quite activating (too much so for me). I don't recall what mood stabilizers I took concurrently. My pDoc would never prescribe any AD to a bipolar patient without first having mood stabilizers on board. More recently I tried Selegiline and found it less activating. If I return to an AD I will use it again. I didn't find the diet at all dificult. I used a modified version that some researchers in Toronto had investigated throughly. Every once in a while I use decongestants, so had to be careful about that. Hope you find something that works.
