My pdoc doesn't want to try other MAOI's. He has suggested lithium, but that's really getting desperate and frankly, I just don't want to take it, given its side effects, its toxicity, the need for weekly blood sampling and, most of all, I don't have any psychotic mania and don't want to flatten my affect.

He think ECT is the best option at this point.

The others -- tried 'em all, and many many more.
