If you are having severe cognitive problems, I suggest adding (start *LOW* because you have depression) galantamine + levetiracetam. Levetiracetam has a decent antidepressant effect in many people. Another option is nefiracetam, but that isn't really on the market anywhere, just a research chemical. Galantamine is an EXCELLENT, motivating, cognitive enhancer. Studies in AD patients don't show anything remarkable, but my impression from trying other cholinesterase inhibitors is that it is profoundly different in effect.
BTW, have you considered precursor loading (l-phenylalanine)? That could help with the stimulant "poop-out". So could memenatine.
The most underutilized drug for treatment-resisitant depression is buprenorphine.
Bupe + MAOI + Dexedrine would be excellent. It really works marvelously for many people, myself included. Too bad I can't get it up on it.
