email accepted Hi to everyone,
Hi Margaret I believe my posts not bouncing anymore, at least i hope.
they’ve made it 
I am starting Parate in two days, and I need help!! I am suicidal so my doc most either be stupid or very trusting fo all my parts. I have may promises, I just hope the others will go along.
sorry you feel so bad, hang in there though, the Parnate should help you feel better. Guess what?? Effexor is a *stimulant* right, at least thats what I heard. Well so is Parnate How much is your doc putting you on?? I started on 20mg. That was a good dose. And will he only give you a small amt. at a time; a few days or one weeks worth. I said all those things *I* could eat, but you should do all that research cause I wouldn’t eat any cheese at first for quite some time. and surprisingly I didn’t miss the cheddar cheese, and I used to eat that stuff all the time. It felt kinda good to have that *control* like, ha ha I knoe I can do this, though I did b*tch AND cry!! So no more aged cheese. I really like cheese. And believe it or not I am finding myself crying right ( for the 1st time) over the fact that I will not be able to have cheese. Silly huh.??
no, not silly. Some of my kid parts just love cheese and we don’t like it when food s are thaen away we want them bad we mad at marg for this she decided without us I decided for all of usbecause I didn’t know what else to do. We have been sooooooo depressed and this med has worked for us in the past.
you took panate before?? maybe your protector part is taking care of you and knows what is good for you. hey, I think you should eat a whole bunch of cheese from now until you you start the parnate! have fun! pizza, pizza, cheddar cheese and crackers, ummmmmmm, what else?? Margaret and it seems a few kid parts too.

[snip] I am starting Parnate in two days, and I need help!! I am s*icidal so my doc must either be stupid or very trusting all my parts. I have made promises, I just hope the others will go along. sorry you feel so bad, hang in there though, the Parnate should help you feel better.
Thanks I am hanging on. going off of Effexor ,Ritalin and Ativan all within approx. a months time has been quite difficult. Uncanny replies: I took Ritalin before. It pulled me out of a depression, but then the doc increased and increased it cause I started getting depressed again, then I had mania. that was not a fun roller coaster. you had to go come off these meds before you could even start parnate? how long have you been off the effexor? yeah, this definately does sound tough. and the ativan for anxiety. will you just be on parnate or continue any of these meds? or any new ones? Oh yeah, in response to what you said earlier about maybe doc was stupid or maybe trusts all your parts, don’t know which… Do you feel better about your doc?? you problly had to go off your effexor for a few weeks at least, and from my experience with depression, my heart goes out to you Margaret. you are very strong, even if you might not feel that way right now. Guess what?? Effexor is a *stimulant* right, at least thats what I heard. Well so is Parnate How much is your doc putting you on?? I started on 20mg. That was a good dose. And will he only give you a small amt. at a time; a few days or one weeks worth.
I have read that Effexor is a stimulant. And by the withdrawl symptoms I had I _believe_ it. I was also on ritalin at the same time and I have just gone off that too. But now I am *not* sleeping more than 3 hours a night, go figure. I am starting on 10mg for 1 week, than 20 mg the next week. I start tomorrow so your message is nicely hear the night before:) And the doc give me 21 tabs of the 10mg dose. Uncanny replies: d*nm!! 3 hours!! yeah, I probbly started at 10 then went to 20mg, I don’t remember how long after. I put my pills in a weekly med box, so I don’t forget when to take what and if I took it or not. each day I take with me that day med strip to work. this way I don’t mess up. well, I have messed up, but this way I am less likely to mess up. I said all those things *I* could eat, but you should do all that research cause I wouldn’t eat any cheese at first for quite some time. and surprisingly I didn’t miss the cheddar cheese, and I used to eat that stuff all the time. It felt kinda good to have that *control* like, ha ha I know I can do this, though I did b*tch AND cry!!
Margaret: So I can cry too? Yeah, I am doing the searches. I am going to write a research paper on MAOI, but focusing on ST. John’s Wart as a natural MAOI. For the reading I have done thus far, when using SJW you’d have to be carefull not to eat too much food containing tyramine but not as careful. But still I won a bet with my psy. doc.:):):):) uncanny: I didn’t realize St. Johns Wart was a natural MAOI. how’d you win a bet with your doc?? So no more aged cheese. I really like cheese. And believe it or not I am finding myself crying right ( for the 1st time) over the fact that I will not be able to have cheese. Silly huh.?? no, not silly.
Margaret: I sort of think it’s silly. But parents disiplined us with food. For example if we were late or something, we could only eat Four Grain Cereal for 4 days. Weird punishment. Now that makes me cry when I think of that. Uncanny: mine knew I liked chocplate and made me not have any or mead me eat in the bathroom cause I couldnt eat right. I didn’t knwo how to hold a spoon. I held it like a shoval, but nobody taught me, it wasn’t my fault. Some of my kid parts just love cheese and we don’t like it when food s are thaen away we want them bad we mad at marg for this she decided without us I decided for all of usbecause I didn’t know what else to do. We have been sooooooo depressed and this med has worked for us in the past.
I feel that way about chocolate. I can eat it, but not much and have to watch out for even a minor headache, cause my body knows, I don’t *nrmally* get headaches, never did as a child. Did you talk to your therapist about this? you can take advantage of the some cheeses you *can* eat right? cream cheese, do you like that?? ummm, I like a bagel and cream cheese. If you like spagetti you can have grated parmesan cheese (the Kraft brand, tho). the italian "real" kind has 1.1 mg and the Kraft kind has only 0.2mg. You can eat Brie (0.2mg). Have you ever had that with crackers? you can eat Ricotta (nil)… you took panate before?? maybe your protector part is taking care of you and knows what is good for you. hey, I think you should eat a whole bunch of cheese from now until you you start the parnate! have fun! pizza, pizza, cheddar cheese and crackers, ummmmmmm, what else??
Good Idea!!!!! we are going to call friends right now and have pizza party and beer. And watch movies. Maybe a movie the little parts will like too. I took Parnate 10 years ago when I was 17 and was still living at home. Parents montiored every movement. I was also on a beta-blocker and stelazine. The Parnate did seem to work as I recall, even in that yucky environment. Margaret and it seems a few kid parts too. Uncanny
So, did you have the pizza, beer and movie party?? Also, did you know that Parnate is used specifically for PTSD?? Uncanny, wishing I could stuff my face with chocolate cake with chocolate frosting on top. — For more information about this service, send e-mail to:
