BTW I do agree that Xanax might be a better benzo for the depressed than Valium or Klonopin. In terms of duration of action, Klonopin or Xanax XR would be the longest-lasting one. (I'm not sure about Xanax XR.)

I take Buprenex which is a formulation of buprenorphine. It is a very effective (and fast-acting) antidepressant in my experience *but* it does have a lot of side effects.

Whether to try TCAs or go straight to MAOIs depends, I'd say, on your symptoms: for example TCAs aren't supposed to work as well for atypical depression and social anxiety, whereas MAOIs are known to be effective for both conditions.
