Hi Monte.

So far, at 600mg, Lyrica is not really doing much more than giving me a feeling of mild intoxication. It is dissipating, though. Sorry to report no antidepressant effect. I think I got my shot a few weeks ago at 225mg when I had been taking it for 2 weeks or so. I felt an antidepressant effect episodically for a day or two. This silly brain of mine thinks depressed = normal.

I don't know what to do next.

Scott,

How about giving tianeptine a trial?

I don't know.

Maybe I'll spend the next week putting together some literature on it.

Thanks.

Have you been busy at work?

Damn, not the news i wanted to get. Do you usually need high doses of medications? Perhaps going higher would help?

The other thing that comes to mind is ECT. I know most people think otherwise, but it can do wonders for some treatment resistant brains.

Hi PJ

Tianeptine is a French antidepressant which is not marketed in the US.
