When the options are gone?

Posted by Bob on November 17, 2005, at 16:31:29

What happens to people who've tried almost all the drugs, and also ECT? What do psychiatrists tell them? I mean, if your disease/condition is bad enough, then I guess you end up dying a slow death (or maybe fast) as you struggle to maintain yourself in the absence of a suitable treatment. I guess I'm wondering what happens to those people you hear about with "severe, treatment-resistant depression" who are not responding to anything. It's not like they can just hang out in a hospital, since insurance companies and medical facilities won't put up with that these days.
