I've been on buprenorphine for TRD for about two years now. I started at 8mg/day in two doses, now i take 4mg/day same way, and it still has a significant antidepressant effect--nothing very specific about it's effect, it just brings up my mood long-term and I also feel more motivated, but i think that's just a (secondary) result of lifting depression. (I was on 90mg/day morphine prior to BUP, but I moved to California and laws/harsssment of doctors left me no choice but to switch to BUP. Morphine worked better w/ fewer side effects).
