Has anyone been prescribed T3 alongside thyroxin or NDT for depression?

If I understand correctly NDT contains T3 also so I reframe my earlier question to ask if anyone out there is on a T4/ T3 mix or NDT for depression. Thanks!

Halinka, Psychiatrists may prescribe T4 or T3 as an adjunct to anti-depressants for refractory depression which hasn't responded to at least 2 courses of anti-depressants.

The member in the link below was prescribed 500mcg T4 for depression. There are some interesting links in the thread.
