Sounds like you may be having a mixed episode.

Did your doctor mention anything about Depakote affecting Nortiptyline blood levels, or vice versa? You can take them together, I just think you need to adjust the dosage of each accordingly.

I would try the depakote and try taking Nortriptyline in split doses. Maybe try the depakote first though.

Whatever you do, definitely stay on Lithium. There is actually recent evidence that suggests Lithium and Depakote combined have a higher success rate than either taken alone.

Good Luck
