In reply to Treatment Resistant Depression-Suggestions?, posted by cecilia on November 16, 2006, at 2:56:20
Actually the book I read was"Why Am I still Depressed?" by Jim Phelps. I haven't read "Why Your Depression Isn't Getting Better" by Michael Bartos. I'll have to look into that one, though it sounds much the same. I just can't help but think that all this about the "bipolar spectrum" etc. has more to do with AD's going generic and lots of expensive new drugs for bipolar. In a few years the drug companies will come out with some new type of drugs and a whole new theory to sell them with. It's just so frustrating. I get so angry when I read articles about how "treatable" depression is. For a lot of us it's NOT treatable, or at least not helpable. I have no expectation that my pdoc will have more suggestions for me than anyone here has, and I get so terrified before my appointments, but I have to go if I want him to renew my sleeping pill prescriptions.
