> I would consider ECT over an MAOI.
Interesting. I have strongly considered ECT many times, and if I had the money I would probably give it a go. Although I have no problem trying out MAOIs. The diet is okay, it requires a certain degree of vigilance and mindfulness, but that's something most of us could use anyway.
>EMSAM -- still not the panacea that it is, because beyond the little dose patch, there are still bold warnings about hypertensive crisis, which is pretty serious.
I know. I'm finding EMSAM a disappointing prospect, but I'm trying not to be too cynical. I understand oral selegiline to be somewhat less effective than other nonreversible MAOIs like phenelzine.
