Hi, jerry!:)
i am glad you're still here and still asking questions..smart..:) you're doing good, jer .
these are wonderful ppl here..hang in there, bud! i'm proud of you.:) i just wrote a post to someone concerning treatment-resistant depression; i've pasted some of it below.
i feel it might benefit you as well, as it appears that you are definitely treatment-resistant, too. i feel for you, jer.I read some info concerning treating treatment-resistant depression recently, and I wanted to share it with you. there’s a new discovery indicating that treatment-resistant depressives actually have a dysfunction in the brain (rather than just temporary chemical level abnormalities or whatever of “normal” depressed people, I suppose), which is why they don’t respond to medications. And so now they’re taking this new finding and are going to try and develop an antidepressant specifically for treatment-resistant depressives! http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2003-10/pg-rbi093003.php This is so exciting! So there’s new hope on the horizon. http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2003-10/pg-rbi093003.
I also read an article that mentioned a *very* high dose of parnate as being an efficacious option for treatment-resistant depressives (people who don’t respond well to meds for depression). this makes sense--parnate hits more neurotransmitters than most, and then raising the dose way above normal in order to get a response is a great idea, and would be a fantastic way to get as much neurotransmitter action as possible. Here is the web site. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=2710808&dopt=Abstract.
Also there’s some success of treatment with electromagnetic stimulation. http://www.pslgroup.com/dg/fe446.htm So that’s an option...
I also read that some ppl w/ treatment-resist. dep. could have food allergies. See: http://www.consciouschoice.com/issues/cc1211/foodallergies1211.html) I’m not saying you do..it’s just a possibility..and, also, aspartame causes depression and should be avoided. I hope some of this information might be helpful.Hope you’re okay, man..i agree with possibly changing the title of your thread..words can be powerful things..
Take care,:)
