Based on the history you presented, everyone will have a different opinion, but mine is that you are not likely to get very far, not much better than you already have, by keeping your world restricted to psych medications. Those are only to help with symptoms, they don't cure anything, and if they are making things worse or problematic, then to me that is a clear sign the problem is something else impacting the brain, but not the brain's fault itself.Whoever was on to the antibiotic thing, I think that was a pretty wise suggestion. And of course a doctor wasn't going to prescribe that, very predictable. Doctors who can help and be creative like that, they exist, but they are under the radar screen and it takes some digging, asking questions, and searching to find them. Stay with an uncreative doctor, stay sick. Simple as that. imo.
Your symptom complex looks like infection to me. I have, unfortunately, been at this game long enough to be able to spot the difference between garden variety depression and infectious depression.
Your overstimulated reactions to many meds.....that was my primary clue. To other people that stuff probably doesn't mean much, just that you have bad reactions to a lot of stuff, but to me I know what it means. Very telling.
I'm not saying it is this or that, just what it looks like.
To keep trying other psych meds, and only that nothing else, will do one thing....confirm over and over that something else is wrong.
