> First of all John, you have left out some very important drug categories, including MAOIs, tricyclics, and mood stabilizers, all which work for thousands of depressed people.
Sure. I think it's a YMMV thing; you can't predict what will work for other people based only on what works for you.
> Lamictal particularly is showing pretty amazing results in combination with ADs.
A perfect example. Personally, I didn't find it at all useful. Similarly, atypical antipsychotics, stimulants, etc. (i.e., the things on JohnL's list) aren't The Answer for everyone. Different people have different problems: there isn't any "short list" of drugs that help with all psychiatric conditions.
