I think you should stop self medicating it can only cause problems. I only had a brief experience with lithium and yes it was depressing; Zyprexa turned my world around very quickly and it was wonderful, I've been prescribed at 2 different times for a periods of 6-8 weeks and it was a life saver both times. Try to be patient until the doctor is ready to change/add your meds.
