Escapee,
Your symptoms sound similar to some of mine, unfortunately. I've taken tianeptine and remember noticing some kind of response to it initially (for maybe a day or two) followed by no response after that, but even though some of our symptoms may be similar, you might respond better to the medication than I did. I've also tried a dessicated thyroid product, which, like tianeptine, seemed to help me initially (especially as far as energy and slowed thinking were concerned), but not after more than a day or two. I have neither hypothyroidism nor hyperthyroidism, but decided to give the thyroid product a try at one point, given suggestions that have been made that it may be helpful in alleviating depressive symptoms.
At any rate, I hope that whichever medication you end up trying will help you. Feel free to let us know how you end up responding, especially if you respond favorably.
