MAPS does have a lot of info on this, yeah.
Anecdotally, I do know that a number of people get depressed after taking Ecstasy.
SSRIs (and probably Serzone as well) may provide some protection against post-MDMA depression.
In regard to kindling: I think this is plausible; however, one can't assume that because many people with mental illness have used drugs, the drugs must have caused the illness. My impression is that a lot of drug abuse among mentally ill persons is an attempt to self-medicate.
