Hi Z.
You offer very cogent arguments for greater recognition of TRD.
> There are advocacy group for most conditions, but none that I am aware of for treatment-resistant depression (unipolar or bipolar.)
As you suggest, people with severe depression have trouble getting out of bed and taking a shower. How could such a condition allow for that kind of active advocacy?
> I don't think we are so few in number so as to not warrant an advocacy group of our own. No, NAMI doesn't count.
Why not?
What about DBSA?

I didn't know that Marplan was indicated for TRD.
It is wonderful that you now have the resources to consider and act upon such issues.
Stay well.
