Some people do benefit from mood stabilizers, but generally no. If one were to go that route, the best bet is Lamictal. After that, flip a coin on the others.
You mentioned ssris but not others. Ever added a TCA to the SSRI? If not, missed out on a good chemistry.
20 years of depression says something is wrong and it aint a chemical imbalance. In my opinion, this kind of depression is the kind that is least responsive to psych drugs because it has nothing to do with a chemical imbalance. It probably has more to do with a toxin accumulation thing gumming up all the brain receptors so the brain chemicals cannot dock at their destinations. Or a genetic defect from birth or biological insult. Or a hormonal gland off base.
Rhodiola rosea.
