For me, personally, I doubt Lyme is involved (grew up in a non-tick area and my depression preceded my moving to one), but candida seems like a possibility.
I also had a really bad sugar habit which led to a lot of silver fillings over the years. (Of course candida thrives on sugar too.) Despite what the ADA says, I think that in susceptible people (who have bodies that aren't good at detoxifying themselves perhaps), having all that mercury in one's mouth can't be good.
I do wonder about possible food allergies, and have been trying to put less junk in my body. I suppose what I really should do is try an elimination diet, but I haven't had the guts to do it.
Though I'm not sure Bleauberry has talked about it much, I also see hypoglycemia as a possible factor for me as I almost always wake up hungry and irritable and often feel at least a little better after eating. I get cranky during the day if I don't eat every few hours too, or if I eat sweets without having a large meal first.
