I have tried med's from every class of antidepressant medications and am on Emsam right now with no notable difference. I'm also on Lamictal to try to stabilize my mood. Was on Parnate in the past. There are no meds left for me to try. I've tried and am on fish oil (omega-3 fatty acid), other vitamins and minerals, and I tried sun screen, herbal stuff and you name it. My brain seems to have shut down. I can barely make it through the day at work now and have become confused, having difficulty concentrating, and my memory sucks now--all my pdoc says from the severe depression I have. I have been faking being okay for a long time, but I don't have the energy to keep it up anymore. I am being recommended for ECT and have pretty much given up the fight against doing this. But if someone has another thing to try other than meds,etc, please tell me before I go ahead and let them fry my brain. Can't stand the depression anymore.
