First, Maois are not stronger meds. I'm not sure why you would think that.
Second, there's a obvious distinction between 'neurotransmitters' and "medications" as topics, whereas there is no obvious distinction between "maois" and "other meds except maois" as topics. what you're saying is similar to saying apples and oranges are different topics. when both are obviuosly fruit. Neurotransmitters are substances in the brain; medications are substances produced by pharmaceutical companies that we take-- which may affect neurotransmitters in our brain, but are not themselves neurotransmitters. So clearly, if you're interested in discussing the brain, it's quite different from discussing meds that people have tried and experiences they've had, and questions about possible further treatments.
I have no idea why in your mind maois is a separate category from other meds. Perhaps they stand out to you for some reason--- but basically they're meds, just as ssris, snris, etc are meds. I get the feeling that you have some personal issue with maois.
