Scott - tried to look up info on the subject but there does not seem to be a lot of info on the internet - could not find any research. My thoughts were:

Resveratrol supposedly works as anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti aging. (SIRT1 gene)

Depression could be caused by inflammation, hormonal changes, neurotransmitters, etc.

Resveratrol could interact with the other medications/minerals/nutrients that you are already taking.

-------------------------

Basically the vitamins can spike up the level of certain hormones/neurotransmitters and then when the effects cease there is depletion which may cause depression. Or it could be causing an imbalance in the delicate state of chemical balance that exists with the medications. Who knows.

This is an interesting thread - pertinent.

Another long thread on nutrition.

----------------------

Alternatively, would it be possible to try to juice grapes with seeds, try a different brand of resveratrol, try different quantities, try at different times of the day - because the combinations of things does seem to matter.

> I tried taking resveratrol 250 mg/day in an effort to treat bipolar depression. I was hoping that its ability to inhibit PDE4 (phosphodiesterase 4) would go to increase BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor). I was disappointed to see that it made my depression significantly worse within 48 hours.
