MAOIs are recommended, as well as augmentation strategies like adding Lamictal, Lithium, Provigil. Rarely stimulants, although it is done.
It would help, though, to know what you've tried, what's helped, what's made things worse, and what sorts of symptoms trouble you most. If you have TR-anxious-D, for example, something like Wellbutrin or Provigil probably wouldn't be a good add on, you know?
Also, SLS posted something recently about showing stages of treatment resistance. It's worth looking at it, and getting an idea from that if there's something that you've missed.
Good luck.
