Terabith Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Lithium is an excellent drug to supplement other antidepressant medications. Something else to consider that is rare but can work wonders: Ritalin is sometimes used for treatment resistant depression. Also upping TSH with synthroid is sometimes done with efficacious effects. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting. One of mine is on Lithium and Lamictal as the dynamic duo but is also on Dexedrine (another ADHD med) and synthroid for thyroid. We have near stability....minor blips but nothing major at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
