consider Zyprexa, the only thing is it's still a bit expensive, but it's effect's on mood are positive, unlike other nuerotropic meds like Thorazine that are basically chemical "lobotomies" that tune out all emotion. I've read low doses of them are good, but still...they degenerate dopamine, and there are more comlications with older nuerotropic meds.
Zyprexa has good effect's on the mood, the only thing ... that is a side effect that is definetly known is weight gain.
Ask... if you can switch to lorazepam, it's not as strong as klonopin [and also it doesnt cause depression as bad]
I was watching how bruttely they used to treat people that they didnt know what was wrong with them, so it was better back in the old day's to just drink..intead of going into an old asylum...ugh! i looked at video's of that it's haunting.

Ask if maybe you can add adderall, or something, but ... Zyprexa will level you out, and cause more sleep and it seems to cancel out negative emotions usally at higher doses [15-20mg]
that's all I can think off to give advice right now...
keep me updated:)
