I used to take a MAOI(Parnate, Nardil) and they are extremely effective, especially compared to SSRI's. They are also not very easy to get prescribed, and you do have to be extremely mindful of what you eat(have to be careful with foods high in tyramine such as aged wines, beers, cheeses, fermented foods, etc.) which can cause a hypertensive crisis, but provided you do that they can be life changing.
