Well, there are risks associated with ephedra, namely cardiovascular in nature. Long term use ephedra can also depleat catecholamine stores which could precipitate depression.

I assume you have tried medications like nortiptyline or desipramine. They may have clinical actions similar to ephedra.

I assme you have tried psychostimulants? Amphetamines are very similar to ephedra.
