For chronic depression, after trying so many medications I'd suggest looking into TMS. Maybe get a consult. Keep trying, and looking for a specialist too.

TMS scared me. There was a documentary on PBS about a guy who had brain damage from it and it freaked me out. I decided to go the Ketamine route but I'm on a low dose so I'm looking at other ketamine options.

I've read ketamine and psilocybin are promising treatments. The laws just need tho catch up with research. Like, allowing to research it.

Yeah I’m doing ketamine now. It’s low dose, at home oral treatment. I probably need a higher dose. Don’t think I can do infusions though since I have a phobia of IVs. Haven’t looked into psilocybin yet.
