Hi James. I'm on 4 meds right now (3 anti-depressants, 1 augmenter), but I have been on that many before. I've actually been on about 8 different meds simultaneously. I don't know if it is normal, but I think that it is when you have "treatment resistant" depression, which is what I have. I have been hospitalized before and the psychiatrist in there who worked with me thought I was way over-medicated. I also currently have a therapist that thinks the same thing. For me, meds do absolutely nothing, and I've tried many of them. Hopefully my new psychiatrist will get me off these meds. You're definitely not alone.

I hope your journey works out.
