You have probablyheard about the study showing great success with prozac+zyprexa as well.

> I have been diagnosed with chronic treatment resistant depression. I have tried Zoloft and Effexor XR but was not able to tolerate either. I was on Remeron for more than 2 years, then Remeron and lithium, then Remeron and Wellbutrin, then Wellbutrin and Remeron, then Wellbutrin and Neurontin, then Wellbutrin, Neurontin and Celexa. Am having to drop Celexa because I cannot stop shaking and it is causing sleep problems after more than a month. Next trial will be Wellbutrin, Neurontin (I think) and Serzone once I get off the Celexa. I haven't had as many years as you have trying drugs, but know exactly how you feel. With each new failure is the increasing feeling that I will never find the answer. I am surprised that your doctor(s) haven't tried Remeron and Effexor together before now, however, as this is known to be quite effective. There is an eGroups page on Remeron that will have references to its use with Effexor. Good luck.
