You're welcome, Scott. Have you considered trying neurofeedback? I did this in 2000-01. It improved my depression somewhat. It also reduced my irritability. Its biggest impact, by far, was on the extreme self-consciousness I used to feel whenever I was out around people, like at the mall or supermarket. Neurofeedback has eliminated this form anxiety for me -- though I'm still a fairly depressed, anxious, irritable guy.

Great strides have been made in the field of neurofeedback since I first tried it. Better equipment and better protocols. I'd like to do more of it, using one or more of these new protocols.

This is a good book about neurofeedback:

Neurofeedback can be pricey -- generally between $50 and $125 per session, depending on where in the country you live. People usually need 20-40 sessions. Self-training can be a cheaper option. Someone as studious as you should be able to master it. Peter Van Deusen is a highly regarded neurofeedback clinician. He sells equipment and online training for self-trainers. He recently developed a protocol -- Whole-Brain Training Circuit -- that has been getting better results than anything he's seen in his 25 years in the field. Here's his site:
