I have taken Lithium many years ago without any significant effect in supplementing the AD effect of a given AD.
So now being on Nardil for 3 months, I have reached a max effect of it's efficacy.
What could Lithium do to effect the less than satisfactory response to Nardil?
I am not bipolar but I have had no acceptable response to Ad's in many years.
My fear is that since I have never been able to get the depression into any, long term remission,it has become so recalcitrant that there are no meds that can alleviate the depressive symptoms at this time.
Short of ECT, which I would rather die than undergo, I can't figure out why nothing is working and no pdoc can help me anymore. Just more wasted time and life lost to this elusive illness.
Anyone have luck with lithium and Nardil? What benefits could I expect that nardil alone is not capable of on it's own?
Desperately seeking solutions.
