My depression is resistant enough even to that, but I have heard that that combination is effective for a lot of people.I would say that a month would not be long enough to expect any result, especially when you`ve been resistant to treatment in the past. For a start, I don`t expect that you were on optimal doses of both to start with. I`ve always been led to believe that time-scale starts when optimal dosage has been reached. I could be totally wrong here, and I also know that it is virtually impossible to exercise any kind of patience when you`re feeling lousy. Presumably, this period of a month was recommended by the doctor treating you? I`m probably just sticking my nose in here, and I apologise if that`s the way it sounds. It just struck me, that`s all. > >
