I would guess because there was no change in anything and secretly we all want a magic pill.
You might consider Lamictal instead of lithium as an augmenter. Low side effect profile. No worries about lithium toxicity and worse side effects. It lifted my mood and we tried it without any other changes to make sure we knew what it did. Within two weeks big elevation in mood and no side effects at all.
Any therapy is hard work. I like CBT very much at it only deals with the present.
I would also highly suggest meditation.
