I know your problem real well. It haunts me from med to med and does seem related to the norepinephrine/dopamine circuitry.

Good ideas have already been suggested. I would reiterate...
Mood stabilizers (personal trial, mileage varies)
Antipsychotics (Zyprexa-fast, Abilify-slower, Seroquel-(maybe too sedating)
A tiny dose of Lexapro or Zoloft...not a therapeutic dose, just a counterbalance dose.
As low a dose as possible of lorazepam or klonopin, maybe xanax.

Of the above things, what worked best for me and fast was 2.5mg Lexapro or 6.25mg Zoloft or 2.5mg Zyprexa or 500mg Depakote extended release. At times the 3 benzos also helped immensely and immediately, but I never did them more than an as-needed basis for emergencies only.
