The drugs you will be taking work completely differently from MAOIs. The fact that they affect similar neurotransmitters does not mean that you will get a MAOI effect.
I'm not saying this combo wouldn't work for you; you should definitely try it. Just don't assume that you have "tried MAOIs" if it doesn't work. A MAOI might still be what you need.
No offense to anyone intended, but depression is so poorly understood that theory is at best a very vague guide. At the end of the day, you still just have to keep trying different meds until you find one or more that works.
Good luck.
