You seem to get a lot of insomnia when you take antidepressants. Tell me, do you find that you can't stop thinking and maybe feel a little pressured and anxious?
Curious you got irritable on Celexa.
Are you sure you're not bipolar? The insomnia and irritability can be manifestations of hypomania.
Its also very curious Abilify worked well for you, a drug often prescribed for bipolar disorder. The pattern of insomia would fit too, because Abilify can be activating at certain doses.
The reason antidepressants may be pooping out on you is because they may be making you cycle, pushing you from a good affect to a poor affect over a course of time.
Maybe you should try Lamictal.
