I've been doing well recently and my mood has lifted. However it got me thinking it doesn't always last and sometimes the rebound depression is severe. Are we doomed to always feel depressed? I hope not.

Of course not. But the nature of the illness is to cycle. Just stay on top your moods to prevent a severe relapse by keeping in regular contact with your pdoc and t when things change for you.
I'm so glad to hear you are feeling better, though! |

Yes. Note some of the new things you may be doing. If you keep your new habits maybe you'll feel good longer.

I don't want to be depressed at all. I felt some of it creeping but was able to brush it off.

I realize I may not be able to stave off the depression entirely but my hope is that through being honest with myself and my dr's i might be able to avoid slipping into the hopeless abyss that I've had to scrape and claw my way out of. That said I know that I must be just as vigilant about being hypo or full on manic, the hypo is very easy for me to enjoy but these periods always result in terrible fall out if they go left unchecked. I am seeing for the first time that they're just as unhealthy for me as the hopelessness.

I have accepted my baseline, as of the last few years, to be depressed.
