I just can't imagine going back to an SSRI after an MAOI. Maybe it's because I've had success.
As for Ketamine trials I know they provide immediate relief, but I have serious doubts as to whether the benefits can be sustained without psychotherapy particularly psychoanalysis. My experiences with NMDA receptor drugs did not induce any lasting change, and in fact precipitated a major depressive episode after a few days of euphoric relief. I've had the same results in longevity just by getting to a functional level through MAOIs and initiating psychoanalysis.
