I have tried St. John's Wort, but like you said, it's not effective for chronic depression...
I tried Texas some 24 years ago. No thanks, you can keep it I always tell people it's a great place to be FROM, a long ways from!
We're looking at Oregon, Idaho, or Utah as possibilities. Want to keep kinda close to family, and somewhere cheaper to live. (Washington is getting way too expensive for us too)

Back to the topic. Something my brother is trying right now is testosterone supplement. He did some research on his own, and had to really talk his doctor into testing him for this hormone level in his system. Turned out to be quite low(he's 50). I guess alot of the effects of having a low testosterone level are right along the lines of what he's dealing with, which the doctors keep diagnosing as simply depression. He now wears a patch everyday. I guess it's helped quite alot, but not a cure-all.
