I can't tell from your post if your mood is cycling between mild and major depression or if you are going hypomanic as well. If it's just depression an anti-d may do the trick. The newer anti-d's like wellbutrin tend to be better for people diagnosed in comparison to SSRI anti-d's.

Yesterday I was right at the edge of hypomanic but didn't go over. I'm not noticing mild depression, just a kind of normal feeling then instantly into major depression. This started when I first went off Prozac on and the Lamictal, but it seems like the depression gets worse and happens more often in direct relation to the hypomanic getting better. Today I was bouncing back and forth so rapidly, I may as well have been depressed the whole time. I've been putting off calling my doctor because I thought it might settle down. wrong..I'm hoping the Wellbutrin and the increase in Lamictal will keep me from having the hypomanic/anxiety episodes I had with the Prozac. Fingers crossed and thanks for your help
thanks for your input, thinker ..it helps to know what to look for..if weird things happen, I'll be coming to you for advice
