I agree with bleauberry about ECT. It totally sucks. I had it a couple months ago, and I still can't tell you how long I was off work, basic events that happened during that time or within a few years prior. It's embarrassing to have to ask my family things I should know or to not know what company a long-term client is with when they call.
And, bottom line, it didn't help my depression one bit even though it costs a fortune.
If you want a non-med alternative, consider VNS.
But I would still go the MAOI route first.
