I have starting doing things to improve my mood like listening to a variety of music, cleaning, reading.

I don't know if there are any other antidepressants or mood elevators that may help me. I am on Gabapentin for nerve pain and it helps my mood a bit. Have tried Lamactil and got hives from it so it's out.
What about an SNRI or Triclyclic? I take cymbalta which is an SNRI and I take lamictal as a mood stabilizer. Many people who have trouble with standard SSRI's take something else like cymbalta or lamictal.
