> OK, I must have misunderstood "remission". What I had was "relapse"[?]. And recovery[?] upon reinstatement of the right brand of lithium.

Here is the DSM, 6 months free of symptoms is 296.36 and 3 months is 296.35

# Major Depressive Disorder, Recurrent

* 296.36 In Full Remission
* 296.35 In Partial Remission
* 296.31 Mild
* 296.32 Moderate
* 296.33 Severe Without Psychotic Features
* 296.34 Severe With Psychotic Features
* 296.30 Unspecified

> What is your diagnosis?


MDD, ADD and seizure disorder.

"And I take it that doxipin, effexor, and remeron with Wellbutrin have worked for you."

Full remission on each, about 10 yrs on Doxipin,
10 yrs on Effexor and presently about 4 yrs on the
Wellby. I have had a few breakthrough depressions
which either a dose adjustment fixed or a switch to a new med fixed.


" And Ativin- for anxiety?"

If the stress/anxiety level passes what I can deal with through other coping means (most days) my depression will break through unless I take ativan.
