I have taken MAOI's for over 25 years straight and I swear I think I know more about this class of drugs than some of the doctors I have been too. I needed surgery once and had the doctor swear up and down that there was no way I could be put out while on an MAOI. I had to bring in a ton of literature to prove him wrong. And I agree that the MAOI's are not 'safe' but neither is long term depression or debilitating anxiety. Depression itself kills more people every year than any MAOI, a fact that escapes many people when they argue against their use. To me if you have tried all the other class of drugs and are still in so much emotional pain that you can't stand living anymore taking the MAOI plunge is the right thing to do.

Just my .02... :-)
