> i have tried tianeptine and would be interested in trying again, but i don't feel comfortable taking it alongside any other medicine that acts to increase neurotransmitters. I feel like they'd cancel each other out. So i'd try tianeptine, but only by itself, and i dont think i could augment it with an MAOI or TCA or SSRI.

Get that nortriptyline blood test!

The therapeutic range for nortriptyline is 50-150ng/ml.

IF YOU GO ABOVE THIS RANGE, YOU LOSE THE ANTIDEPRESSANT RESPONSE. What's more, I am suspicious that it might even confound the activity of the other drugs you are taking.

You really need to explore this before making any further changes.
