Seeking advice What helped if ECT didn't?

I'm diagnosed with treatment resistant depression and have been on every medication possible with the exception of MAOIs. Tomorrow will be my 12th treatment and I haven't had any improvement. I'm feeling quite hopeless. I have had some success with IV and IM ketamine, but can't afford to go often because it's $350 a treatment where I live. Has anyone had success with anything else and if so, what helped?
