I think a good combination for many suffering these symptoms can be Depakote+low dose Lexapro or Zoloft+low dose Lithium. Just a moderate amount of Depakote-750mg-along with a low dose of Lexapro-2.5mg-can go a long way in improving mixed states. Start of with the Depakote for a month, then add in the Lexapro if necessary. I think for the depressive side the Lexapro, or even Zoloft at 25 mg, will be necessary for treating the depressive symptoms, and relieving anxiety.
