With regards to CRF-Antagonist antidepressants, they may be closer than you think. I have some information that such drugs may already exist but have not been exploited as antidepressants. Until a drug acting on CRF's is released, I have an idea for a drug cocktail that could beat Remeron hands down. Mix an SSRI with the new potent 5-HT2 antagonist M,100,907. During initial treatment, augment the SSRI with pindolol to decrease the amount of time necessary for the SSRI to kick in. This avoids 5-HT3 antagonism and antihistamine problems. I think that is a wonderful idea. Maybe the improvements in psychiatry are running so slowly because I haven't been around to speed them up.
