Not necessarily saying that. But psychotherapy, whether it's CBT or some other type, is not likely to lead to adverse physical side effects in the same way that a medication might. Also, therapy and meds together can be a very good approach in many cases. If you haven't tried therapy before, I think if it were me I'd give it a try before trying an MAOI. Especially if you are getting partial relief from your current medication regimen.
If you were to do try both at the same time (an MAOI and therapy), it might be hard to figure out which one is helping if you find signficant relief.
