Well, I'm for trying MAOI's first. You can always try ECT later. I am extremely treatment resistant and finally got around to trying MAOI's. I take Parnate and it's the best drug that's ever worked for me. My life is very different now. It's true that there are diet restrictions with MAOI's but to me they are not as permanent as ECT may be. I didn't write off ECT, I just preferred to go the medicine route.

I would strongly recommend Parnate (or Nardil, but Parnate may be better for you) before trying ECT. As I said, you can always do ECT later. MAOI's often work for people that have Treatment Resistant Depression.
