Why mess with opiates? I'd bet you didn't try all treatment options.
My protocol:
1) SSRI
2) Raise Dose
3) Switch SSRI with same higher dose
4) Add Edronex (or if not tolerated, move to high dose Effexor)
5) SSRI+Edronax+Remeron or Effexor+Remeron
6) Add Lamictal
7) Add Lithium
8) Add amantadine (Symmestrel)
9) ECT
10) MAO Inhibitor (Nardil/Parnate)
11) Going to a well known psychopharmacologist and staying there for a year+This works for 98% of depressed...
