I beleive most of us are treatment resistant, not only from this board, but many people i know personally! i have a friend with ocd, who after 20 years has found "no" relief at all, even with 120 mgs. of prozac, though lamictal brought him put of a deep depression when his mom passed away.i have taken tofranil, tranxene, klonopin, valium, luvox, celexa, serzone, prozac, librium, campral and st. john's wort, prozac was the only effective AD, klonopin was also, and still is effective. luvox was worthless as was celexa.
tofranil helped years ago in my teens. prozac is just keeping me going at the moment, but i beleive it has pooped out after 4 years. i really at this point don't know what to do, i can't tolrate high doses of ssri's, nor would i prefer to be on high doses. i may give tofranil another shot, but i am not optimistic...john [maybe i need a better placebo based attitude]
