> Hi. In regards to justherself54's post, what exactly do you mean when you say "parnate, not so social?" Also, does anyone know what non-melancholic depression is? I read at wikipedia that parnate is used to treat depression without melancholia? Thanks for listening. Noelle
>I cant of course speak for her,however parnate might not have for some as strong social benifits then for others.
Just in theory,the reasoning behind this is Nardil has a Gaba increasing effect,unlike benzos nardil actual helps the body create overall gaba,gaba as most know is the prime culprit in social phobias and anxieties,as well as panic.Most anxiety drugs,legal and not,all effect the gaba system some how,Nardil is one of these and its known for its effect on gaba.Parnate on the other hand is a stronger stimulant type of drug,increasing dopamine and noradrenaline,which usualy bring help lift people out of depression,however parnate lack of gaba effects cause it to be more of a power and go sort of effect,with less stop and chat.
Parnate usualy isnt taken alone for long,and most people end up augmenting it with some form of gaba drug,usualy a benzo such as klonopin or xanax.
There is little debate over gaba being involved in social enhancment,there is however lots to learn as to just how gaba does so.
