Hi Allison,
> I tried SSRIs. They drove me up the wall....
Sounds like you really have been through the whole pharmacy. Have you tried things like lithium? Neurontin is a good idea. Perhaps lamictal, zyprexa, or one of the other antipsychotics will help. I have read that these are good for some people. Keep off the MAOIs until the very last minute.
I can tell you are very angry and desperate to end your pain. We have all been there at one time or another. This is the place for support. Is it possible for you to really relax and de-stress? Sometimes exercise helps (but it ain't no cure). Do you get any support from those around you? What I did in the distant past was just go to where lots of people were, like the park or library, and just read. I felt better just being out and about instead of hiding in my apartment.

Take care of yourself and keep posting. I have found groups like this one to be very helpful.
