I totally disagree that medications can take more than four months, and I don't know where you got that information. That wasn't even true in the old days, and now medications are metabolized much faster and their efficacy can be gauged more quickly.
This is the first place I have found someone who has suffered like me. I have been in treatment for almost 30 years, have tried about 35 medications, and nothing has worked. Every second is torture. There are no "better" or "worse" times. There is absolutely no treatment for my depression.
If someone knows where else I can find people like me, I would be happy to contact them.
