I'm terribly sorry that your hopes have been dashed. You are right, right, right it is so very demoralizing to have that happen. Is there no augmentation you think might work?
My experience is very similar to yours in terms of having one brief period (about 6 or so months) of feeling 'normal' (about 10 years ago) and marveling that real people feel that way ALL THE TIME! It amazed me; then the drug (Zoloft) pooped out (which I understand it is fairly notorious for doing). It helped me understand what strength it takes for us to just function within the burdensome weight of depression; you are very strong.
You have my sympathies, and my envy in a way--you had a few days respite, and hope. I encourage you to keep on trying, and I'm glad you have a place that gets you out of the house. I think that helps a lot.
Wishing you good luck, and you'll be in my prayers (with the warning that it may do more harm than good...).
Take care,
Shar
