Thanks for your thoughtful response, Scott.
Well, I certainly do fit into the category of chronic depression, where sometimes it's just not as bad. As for mania, the only very manic (textbook) reaction I had was from Neurontin. Other times it's hyper or shown in my sleep (or lack of) patterns.
I was put on a low dose of Lithium once, a few years ago, but nothing. No magic. Same with Trileptal, which I tried a few times. As for Lamictal, same; tried it twice, and both times it severely worsened my depression.
Thanks for your insight and response.
