You don't want any more drug trials, don't blame you. Nardil had nasty SE profile for you.
I'd do ECT and probably will someday. Six months in the funk is not good. I tend to think that ECT is less harmful than say taking combinations of 30 drugs for the past 20 years like me.
Screw Nardil, go for the most effective treatment for depression. You might slide by with no maintenance drugs or you could go monthly for a maintenance treatment.
I think many of us, me included, wait too long to try ECT. Don't wait till you drop to absolute rock bottom.
