> Does it do anything for the atypical depression that comes with Bipolar II. Hypomanic periods (if I have any) are not a problem - haven't been able to shake the atypical depression for 3 years. Lamictal 350, Prozac 15, and Klonopin 1.5 keeps me alive but not much more. I have tried the other combos.

paxil worked for me twice ... then i went to effexor, and it didn't work ... then to parnate and it *did* work (but stopped cuz of ADD)... then to celexa + ritalin and it works but i do attribute quite a bit of the AD effect to ritalin

zyprexa alone definately does not get rid of my depression .... but it helps
