Are you fighting it too? I beat it back in college but it's coming back. Busted ass for past 10 years- joined Tesla, promoted a few times to dir. Had two kids, now all the old darkness seems to be coming back. Not fun. Thought I was done with it years ago. I can logic my way through both sides of the gun (ben harper pun intended) but still feel helpless against it at times.

Please, please try to some this through rational experimentation. Beyond diet and exercise, look at all the things you do in your life. Even wearing headphones a lot can severely disrupt your inner ear and cause horrible malaise and depression. (If you think the inner ear isn't extremely powerful, try getting seasick.) Do you get enough sun (not just vitamin D supplements)? Do you have sufficient, fresh airflow while you sleep? Do you get 8-9 hours of sleep? Do you go to sleep before 11, which has proven to be optimal for melatonin production? Do you eat processed foods, deli meat, red meat, MSG, or drink soft drinks, naturally-flavored water, or too much alcohol? Do you drink a lot of water each day? Do you take any probiotics, particularly of you've ever taken antiobiotics?
I could go on for 1000 words. My point is, pharmaceutical intervention is absolutely bunk, in my opinion: I've seen too many of my friends lose their sex drives, short term memories, and energy levels thanks to the evil marketing departments of big pharma. My opinion is they likely invented those neurotransmitter diagrams for how these drugs work out of thin air.
Please try alternative means using smart experimentation. It may take a while, but there's too much to risk taking any drugs. The world is filled with depressants, the game is to eliminate all the ones you can.
