I've heard of people stabilized on an MAOI moving location and meeting doctor after doctor that refuses to continue scripts for MAOIs, even when they're already doing well on them, because of the reasons I stated above. They're not first-line treatments for anxiety by any means, but people with mild conditions using first-line treatments tend not to hang around here. I mean, the atypical antipsychotics have serious side effects too, but pdocs seem to trust them, an consider them acceptable even for relatively minor conditions. I think atypicals could be classified as dangerous drugs, because they can seriously damage health when taken exactly as prescribed. On the contrary MAOIs are quite safe as long patients follow the diet properly and don't take any contraindicated drugs. Personally, I had fewer side effects on Parnate than I did with first-line drugs like the SSRIs. Nardil is fairly heavy-duty in the side-effect department though.
