hi. can you tell me what MAOI you are taking?
my lexapro and topamax combo has pooped out. they worked incredibly well for a while... completely stopped the panic attacks and put a floor on the depression. now they don't even begin to help with either.i have atypical (treatment resistant) major depression, anxiety, and debilitating panic attacks. short of ECT or vagus nerve stimulation... i am running out of choices and ready to just give up.
i am scared to take an MAOI... how are the side effects and dietary restrictions? i want to be able to tell the psychiatrist what i want to try... i am tired of these expensive med trials that do not work. i have been through a lot of the SSRI's, and cannot take a benzo (abuse/addiction issues).
i am terrified that i will be "stuck" this way and no medications will help. i don't want to live this way, ya know?
