John,
Thanks for the informational reply. You are a good man and I respect your evaluations/opinions. (Your competence is not surprising since most EE's are bright).
Hey, I never heard back from you regarding an exchange you and I began on a thread from last week. Here is a link to my response to you. Please let me know your opinions?

The topamax may be playing a role too, as it precipitated some hypomania a few months back. The Serzone add on was late in the game and that is when I really got the "dopamine kick". But this is transient with some mood cycling.
