Yes that is very very individual. But in general the biggest "culprit" is the norepinephrine. It is the biggest trigger. So it is wishable to avoid TCAs and take them only as a last resort.

On the other hand, TCAs, SSRIs or others, you have to take a mood stabilizer *anyway* with them if you're bipolar.
