Does anyone still take MAOI's? If so, what is your diagnosis and how do you like the medication?

I've been taking selegiline for seven years and all is well. I sleep better and have fewer mood swings. No problems with interacting with tyramine and I'm not being totally restrictive with my diet.

It's an A+ for me.

My pdoc tried me on Ensam a few years back but I wasn't able to stay on it long enough to really know if it was going to help. It dropped my blood pressure so low that I kept passing out. Ensam doesn't have quite the dietary restrictions that other MAOI's do from what was explained to me.
Thanks for this!
