I can relate very well to what you have described. I think it happens more often than anyone has looked at. Maybe someday they'll have a name for it.
In any case, post-meds and post-ECT, the only med on the planet that has actually been able to help me feel better, kind of like meds used to back in the early days, is Milnacipran. Since you've already tried Tianeptine, I see you are not shy about ordering your own meds, so maybe Milnacipran is something to consider. Don't know if it would work or not. But all I can say is that while I am in a very similar condition as you are, it is somehow a unique different drug unlike any of the others.
Other than that, you just gotta keep trying things. You might need a combination, and maybe meds from categories you have not tried, such as the zyprexa family or the nortriptyline family.
