I’m in the same boat! I’ve tried antidepressants, ketamine, TMS and ECT. Now I’m on a cocktail of 3 antidepressants and it’s finally starting to work. I haven’t a clue what brought this depression/anxiety on approximately 5 months ago. Best wishes to you! This is no way to live.

Thanks so much for sharing. Do you mind listing the names of the meds you were prescribed and are currently working for you? Since posting my comment, I returned to taking the lamotrigine and generic Pristiq. I took a huge dive in my brain functioning after being med free for a couple months....and feeling excellent until late March. So I guess I am resigned to taking meds for the rest of my life. You mentioned ketamine - I was going to pursue that avenue but from what I read, it seems to be more helpful for those with a trauma induced condition. I believe my condition is simply hereditary, going back several generations. While I have been doing everything possible to stay healthy and active, the symptoms became too much to fight. I hope I will start feeling better in another week. This is my third week back on meds. My best to you and all who suffer this awful burden.
