I am on a drug regimen that works well for me; it is closely monitored by my psych and our honest communication is critical.
We added a mild dose of Paxil in Dec when I was definitely dealing with an encroaching depression. I am still on it and I know that it helps with mood and "evenness" based on the scary and awful experience I had when there was an accidental lapse in meds for five days. Getting back and righted took me about a week.
IMO and IME, there are lots of drugs that can help us. Finding the right one(s) is important to my recovery and I am A-OK with taking whatever I need to as long as I need to take it (them).
Take care of yourself.
