Hello Dr Goldberg,
I have the treatment-resistant depression with SAD (twice a year episodes)at the top of it. I've tried all medications available from all around the world. The problem is that I respond to them, and they loose response with time. This includes mood stabilizers such as Neurontin, Topamax or Geodon, Revia, Sulpiride.
I've also tried Keppra and Zonegran. I need energizing medication because of my anergy. Keppra "put me down", slowed me down and made me feel anergic within few days.
I saw some bests doctors in USA, tried ECT and rTMS with no results. Does it mean I'm incurable?
What would you suggest?

Anna P.
