Thats a shame ! Treatment resistance could be avoided (in some cases) by adding a stimulant. Fatigue and apathy are often more persisting than the bad mood in depression. Your pdoc should give you a carefully (small doses) try to Ritalin.
Edronax (Reboxetine) was more stimulating (for me) than Ritalin ! This could be a good option if side effects are tolerable (not for me).
