I need help...... mentally. i can't find any antidepressant that works for me. the only time i feel "okay" is when i take a vicodin. what can i do?

See below: There is likely at least 25% of the population with insufficient response to traditional anti-depressants. Some of these patients respond to opioids. I suspect their depression is caused by an endorphin imbalance whether acquired by drugs or there innately. Opioids may be the only drugs which will help.
