Doctors are preventing their patients from getting well when they refuse to prescribe MAOi's and tricyclics...What does that tell you?

Years ago those were the only drugs for depression and after 15 years of trying all of the 'new and improved' SSRI's, I am worse off than ever since my depression has gotten worse from inadequate treatment with SSRI's, etc.

Now I'm going back through all of the older treatments because they worked better than the current drugs. Trying more drugs is not the answer, it delays you from getting well using some of the older, tried and true medications, like MAO's and tricyclics.

My first bout with depression was "cured" with low dose Nardil. It was only the second drug tried so I didn't suffer very long. That was the beauty of having less drugs to try.

So if your MD won't go fo the tricyclics or MAO's , find an expert that will be comfortable prescribing them. Good luck.
