You might want to post this in the Bipolar forum, too, if you haven't already. I have MDD that has been treatment resistant at times, so I've gotten some of this type of scrutiny in the past. I am doing well right now on Cymbalta + Remeron.

I so know what you mean about having been down so much that it's hard to know what normal is supposed to feel like. Keeping a mood journal when you're feeling good might help with a diagnosis (but who wants to keep a mood journal when they're feeling good?) I know I want to do all the things that I wasn't able to do when I was really depressed.
