I think that is exactly what I am going to do .... hey when I treat high blood pressure, I use one or two potent medication and sometimes top it off with a third .... why not do the same with depression. Hit it hard with medication that have different modes of actions ..... I really like the celexa with possibly pamelor or desipramine combo ..... thank isom .... and thank for sticking with me when I did respond to your first post ask my medication history. I was kind of embarrassed to have been on so many medication without sucess .....

I will keep you updated!
