Hi Scott

Would your doc let you replace your nortriptyline with imipramine? It might help, especially in combination with your other meds. I think you said he was uncomfortable with the idea........but if you've tried it before.....

I don't think you've ever tried Fluanxol. It might be worth a try. You'd have to import it though.

Maprotiline? I don't remember you mentioning trying maprotiline.

And have you ever tried adding tryptophan to your medication? ......starting at a low dose of course due the risk of serotonergic side effects. It's currently approved in the UK under the brand name Optimax.

Did you read pseudoname's recent posts? He eventually had an excellent response to buprenorphine after careful dose titration. It didn't lift his depression at first, it only worked once the dose was adequate. I thought you might be interested considering that your own experience with opioids was unimpressive......you only took a couple of doses I think, was it hydrocodone? Anyway....

....oh and sibutramine. That's another med you haven't tried.

Requip? Mirapex? Dostinex? I remember you saying that bromocriptine briefly helped. Chairman_MAO seemed to like Dostinex best.

Sinemet? That might help. I wonder..... I don't know of anyone who's tried it for depression. It does interact with MAOIs though :(
