always reassuring to be reminded that there are other people out there with the same experience as me. i'm an atypical depressive. no, partial or transient response to 20 or so different medications so far. the only thing that makes me feel well are opiates. matter of fact, before i got sober and was treated for "depression," i was addicted to pain killers, then heroin. a couple of times since i've been "sober," i've had to take codeine for physical pain. each time i've been reminded of the profound relief it brings to my mood. the problem with using these drugs of course, is the quick tolerance and all the problems that come with it. if they could develop something that didn't have this nasty problem, for once i'd be a happy guy. well, i could go on and on about this topic but enough for now. thanks for the interesting posts.
