Any suggestions for antidepressant treatment after Nardil?

[Middleway]

Been on a huge variety of drugs in my life. Basically my symptoms are neurotic depression, panic attacks that just roll one into another all day long with flashbacks, nightmares, social phobia..
Totally unable to work, socialise, build friendships and maintain relationships...Nardil brings it all together and life works.
Amphetamines are the only drug with a similar (feel good ) factor but the destroyed my life

Nardil works were nothing else came close, but the side effects are debilitating and the effectis inconsistant.
Tried Parnate, eased my anxiety but made me apathetic and depressed and fatigued.
What is special about Nardil that other drugs dont posess and could it give any pointers on where to go next?
The only drugs I havnt really tried (I think) Are TCAs

When do you give up? When do u settle for life as a disabled person?
This never ending searching is as exhausing as the condition itself...
Thanks

If you don't mind me asking what did you find debilitating about Nardil?

I am also looking for an effective Anti Depressant but have not found anything, I did try Parnate but did not find it useful at all.

Depending on the depression and the likelihood of your suicide without it, if Nardil works... stick with it, even if the side effects can be severe. The author David Foster Wallace killed himself while attempting to taper off of Nardil.

I may be stuck on in Its the only thing that ives me a life.
I am a very active and passionate in martial arts and it effects my cardiac output so limiting my performance. constipation, hypotension, WEIGHT GAIN+++ Sexual dysfuncntion +++ reduced reaction times and co-ordination, life threatening drug interactions, dosing several times a day, neding to keep it refrigerated...the list goes on. Yet, it is a miricle drug for despite all that

Im actually in the same situation as u bro. Nardil gave me back my life and helped me become social, happy and just full of life in general.There is no other drug on the market which can do what nardil does for me, as far as I know. Problem is I gained about 40 pounds in a year, which was my fault for not adjusting my diet. The side effects are many, but for me at least their worth putting up with because nardil works great for me.
