Hi cabinfever...I see there havent been any posts regarding your situation in a while. So how is it going? I too, am ... what they call ... suffering from Treatment Resistment Depression as I too have tried virtually everything under the sun. I say everything...there were a few I wasn't able to give a go with due to un-insured status and the med cost ...some of them..as much as $700 for 30 day dosage. It's so sad for those of us who fall into this catagory of patient's. Help MAY be there but not within financial reach for us. I would like to hear where you are with yours right now. Prayers and thoughts r with u my friend.

started Luvox also had a blood test that was processed by Mayo clinic (PCY450) see mayo clinic web site. tells which drugs may work by looking at your DNA. Also had been taking small amounts of calcium and magnesium. go to Wellness Resources web site. late afternoon seems to be the worst for me. goes in cycles. on low dose of LUVox so will have to wait and see what happens at more normal levels. rembmeber the song I have been everywhere. that is me Also have you asked your family doc if there might be something medical that is causing the problem. look at bodylogicmn.com cabin fever

thank you for the info...I tried Luvox...ended up in the ER with my potassium depleted...it has a warning about this as a possible serious side effect and so, of course, I suffered from it. My worst time is upon waking up every morning. I suffer from PTSD and so my sleep pattern is virtually non-existent due to nightmares and other highly charged dreams. I have started on a medication for it and am doing well on it. I feel like when I get to the maintenance dose of it, I will see marked improvement as far as sleep goes and in turn may do better with my depression. The med I take for the PTSD is Minipress. It helps to block the high amount of adrenaline my body has been putting out 24/7 and so far, I've had no side effects on the starter dose. I will check out the wesite you listed. Thanks again for your reply my friend.
