I think that the only person who can determine
which of the three options will occur is you.
Don't ever give up and don't ever let a doc take
hope away from you. I had an uncle who was
severely depressed (his depression didn't start
until he was 65)and for years nothing worked,
not even repeat ECT treatment.
Then one day they started yet another new med
and bingo, he was better. He does not think that
it is the medication making him better, he thinks
he did it himself or else that whatever it was
that caused the depression just corrected itself.
(but he still takes his med though, he says, if it
aint broke don't fix it).Today, at 70, he is his
old self again. So there you go, a success story
when there seemed to be no hope. Hang in there!
