I agree with Yxibow, who's usually got some good information to pass on.
Really, though, I just wanted to tell you that the mood charting helped me more than it seems possible. I kept a mood chart for several years, rating my mood, anxiety, irritability, agitation, etc, every time I ate. (The timing of my ratings was just convenience -- it was easy to get into the habit of noting those things when I was getting food out.) The mood charts helped me recognize patterns in my moods, offered a reminder that things weren't always as bad as they seemed at any given moment -- after all, I'd felt better at other times -- and just the fact of doing SOMETHING rather than sitting back hoping for the meds to perform magic was helpful.
Good luck.
