Thanks, Scott.
Wellbutrin make me too anxious and doesn't help the depression. Lamictal makes me depressed, and I never gave Abilify a fair shake, though I typically don't do well with APs.
As far as lithium goes, it makes perfect sense as to why I've gained so much weight over the past 6 months without changing my diet. And it also makes sense that it could be causing edema; my docs have no clue as to why I would have acute edema when my blood tests and scans were all totally normal.
I've mentioned it before, but I'm not really sure whether I have MDD or Bipolar. Depression is always my worst symptom, and I was counting on lithium to prevent episodes.
I'm really running out of options here...
Thanks again for your input and I hope you're still doing well :).
