The patch is good because it goes directly in your bloodstream and up to your brain. I am resistant to many meds and so my doctor wants me to try the patch. It is not the last choice that doctors make. Get some more information about it.

When you are resistant to other meds, at least you have another option with the patch. Most patients may do good on medications, but if you are like me and Jess it gives us some hope. I wouldn't believe everything you see on T.V. I have had serious depression since I was a child. Most patients are helped without using a MAO inhibitor, but unfortunately there are some who may need it.

Some people do find these medications to be lifesaving. For these people MAOIs can be the best treatment. As long as they are vigilant about their diet they can get real relief from their depression.
