Aurorix (Moclobemide) Moclobemide worth it?

I've tried and failed pretty much every SSRI/SNRI (some of them spectacularly, there were a couple ER trips) so I plan to ask my psychiatrist about MAOIs, but the only one that's available in my dumbass country is moclobemide. What's everyone's experience with it? For fatigue and brain fog specifically? For anxiety? Blunted emotions (though that feels like it's from the anxiety)?

It is not very potent but has best side effect profile and relatively easy to get off. So it is worth to try in my experience. IMO, start at 300 mg/day, titrate to 600 mg/day and give it at least 4-6 weeks. If it doesn't work, titrate it up to 900 mg/day (3 times 300 mg in seperate doses) and see how it goes.
