Hello!
It sounds like there are quite a few treatments that you haven't yet tried. I was sorry to hear that you've had so many disapointments with medication.
Have you ever tried lofepramine? (Gamanil) It's rarely discussed on psycho-babble because it isn't available in the US. I find it helps my depression better than anything else that I've tried... paroxetine, fluoxetine, venlafaxine, dothiepin, moclobemide etc. Lofepramine doesn't blunt emotions like paroxetine, sexual side effects are uncommon with lofepramine.
Also, have you ever tried Nardil or Parnate. They are rarely prescribed in the UK but they can really help some people who haven't improved with other medication.
Have you ever seen a psychologist? I know you have to wait ages to see one on the NHS.
I won't make anymore suggestions yet because you might have already tried the treatments which I've suggested.
All the best,
Ed.
