Hi.

Me too. I hate when that happens.
Perhaps you can recapture the antidepressant response by adding a second drug. Unless you have had a negative experience with lithium previously, you might opt to try it first. You would know within 10 days whether it is going to help. You use a dosage substantially lower that what is used to treat bipolar disorder: 300-600mg. Many people notice a significant difference within 72 hours.
I bet you'll find something that will eventually work well for you again. To a great degree, it is trial and error.
