Colin:
Since we seem to have some similiarties here is what lithium did for me. When I lowered my TCA dose to 50 mg I still would get a "spacey" feeling in the afternoon. I also had relentless depression. Well, I started on lithobid 300 mg in the morning and 300 mg at night with my benzo. I seemed to have my thinking clear up in a few days. I suggest giving that a try and I wonder why you pdoc didn't try that sooner. Tell the prick that is what you want, assuming that is the route you choose.
I have been better since upping my benzo(tranzene) from 7.5 to 22.5 mg. What ever you choose we are here rooting for ya. This pdoc, med run around is exactly like you said "bollocks" Good luck and keep at it.
