A couple things to keep in mind:
1. Parnate or Adderall make some people more depressed than they were to start with. Sometimes dramatically worse.
2. Nortriptyline and other TCAs make some people very depressed.
It could be the meds themselves helping to make you feel so bad? I see that as a real possibility. The problem is that when we are on the meds, we can't tell and it is the last thing we would suspect. I could pull up hundreds of posts of people who felt better when they started to wean down on their meds, not go up higher on them.
Just for thought.
I think you need to call the doctor right away. Say screw the lithium for now, things are too bad....we gotta make some serious changes here....this is a bad road that is not showing any signs of getting better, only worse.
