I wouldn't give up on mood stabilizers altogether just because Lithium didn't work, (Depakote, Tegretol, Lamictal, Neurontin, Topomax, Verapamil, Klonipin, Nimotop). I don't tolerate ADs, which took years to figure out. They actually make the depression worse, if that is possible. The Merck Manual at this site talks a lot about variations of mood disorders and their friends. I pray you get some relief - and soon. I have resorted to ECT, but it isn't for everyone either.
