I haven't ruled them out. If my psychiatrist told me that's what I needed to try, then I guess I'd do it. He never forces anything on me though. I just can't imagine being on such a heavy duty medecine like that for the rest of my life. I mean, does anyone really take these things for decades, or does it always end up bad in the end? I also can't imagine being on a super-restrictive diet for a very long time. The last thing I need is a stroke. I wonder, if the MAOIs had remained a first line treatment if the drug companies would have found safe versions by now.Thank you for the website.
