Hmmm. Tough question. It is uncharted water when you are messing with an MAOI.
For starters maybe stick with things that are natural to the body. Such GABA, taurine, glycine, magnesium. One or several. But no matter, go real low on dosing until you know what it feels like and can catch any adverse reactions in a mild form. Try one at a time. Then mix and match as you see fit.
I have been brave in my years of testing different things, but I'm not sure I would have ever mixed an MAOI with an herb. If I did, maybe I might have considered a bit of Passion Flower, Ashwaghanda, Skullcap, Lemon Balm, or Valerian. I surely would not have done more than 1/4 of a capsule to start with until I saw what it felt like.
