Hello, and thanks for your question.

Parnate is a medication in the MAOi class of antidepressants. It is considered a very strong and very effective medication, especially for treatment-resistant depression, which you describe. There is a very good chance and good hope that this medication will be effective in treating your depression. Make sure to adhere strictly to the dietary guidelines that accompany this medication. Otherwise, it is safe and very effective.

Detailed Answer:
I can't call you per the rules of the website, but if you give me your email we can talk about scheduling on here.

Your feeling sick and panicky is likely caused by an anxiety disorder. Parnate is excellent treatment and can be curative for anxiety disorders. There's nothing you need to do -- it can take Parnate up to 4 weeks to achieve full effect for relief of these symptoms. In the meantime, you can undergo cognitive behavioral psychotherapy. I would seek out a therapist in your area. If one is not available, I do offer text-based therapy on this website via asking a question at my private direct link below.
