> Please try sublingual buprenorphine tabs, ace. Mu-opioid agonists have known, powerful anti-OCD and antidepressant properties. Buprenorphine is a kappa antagonist as well as a mu-agonist, which confers it with additional antidepressant and possible antipsychotic activity. You are, IMHO, wasting your time with SJW. Think about it: Nardil addresses in some way SE, NE, GABA, and DA. However, it only addresses DA via MAO inhibition, and since SE--which is "increased" as well via MAO inhibition--counterbalances DA, it still has a somewhat dopamine inhibitory action. Thus, another possibility you may find relief from is a dopamine agonist or psychostimulant. Instead of trying all these esoteric combinations, try to rationally break down what you have going on with the drugs you are taking. Try medications that address neurotransmitter subsystems and/or have mechanisms of action that are not currently in play.

> NMDA antagonism also confers an antidepressant effect; thus you may try memantine or amantadine. They also induce DA release.I wanna try this med too,or any good opoid that wont interfere with a maoi.So far my doc,and pharmisct said its a very hard drug to get,the doc has to be speicifacly licensed,as well as the pharmacy and its mostly on prescribed to a select few.I was told a docs practice is only allowed a certain number of pantiets to be on it.
