Klonipin/clonazepam can be depressing, and from some general experiences, the depressing can lead to frustration.
I have also found Zyprexa to cause a bit of activating anger, but gabapentin as well.
Gabapentin also really messed up my sleep, and too much of it would also put me back into a deep depression. How is your sleep? Do you get good restful sleep, or is it lite and full of dreams?I know this is the last thing you may want to hear, but a very, very tiny dose of an antidepressant may be useful for you. A sedating, older tricyclic may be warranted.
Best of wishes...
