Hi Scott,

Thanks for your note.

On Abilify 2.5 mg, I became very irritable and wanted to spend more than usual. I stopped that med pretty quickly.

I don't think it made me feel any better.

I have taken desipramine many years ago,plus Pamelor which made me very dizzy and Anafranil which didn't do anything even at a high dose.

> 3. If your depression has a bipolar diathesis (like mine), perhaps you need to take a combination of MAOI + TCA

I have had trials of both nardil (intolerable dizziness) and parnate (dangerous spikes in blood pressure unrelated to anything i had eaten, drank, taken, etc.)

As always, thank you for your thoughts.
