Have you ever responded well to an anti-depressant?
Never tried one. But the way atypical antidepressants work like antidepressants is the right way, I think. It works indirectly by selective blocking, not by pumping and flooding. Flooding never works for long since your body over time becomes less sensitive. And when you stop, the insensitivity remains, creating effectively a shortage. What's more, you are psychologically weakened to deal with anxiety (same with the blocking).

Do you think you are too dependent on one or more of your meds?

Mania kills cells. Brain cells die. Memories become more reduced conceptually, making more efficient use of limited means. Memories shape our reality. Our memories are more or less split in two by abstractions, conceptual reductions. Mood states with memories, concepts, attached. Memories of pain and those of joy. It causes instability, changeability. Fearing that will leave an emptiness between pain and joy and a greater divide.
