I would not recomend ECT. Have you ever been on a TCA? TCA's are great for what we used to call "agitated depresson", before all this bipolar spectrum nonsence came into the picture.
I recomend clomipramine, or amitryptaline.
I think you really need to just consolodate for a while. I mean, what I think may be hurting you the most, is taking a little bit of everything, but for too short a period to really stabilize.
Changing medications and supplements too quickly can make pretty much anybody seem bipolar and out of it.
Are you able to take a little time off work to try and slow down and sort things out?
SSRI's didn't go over with me too well the second time around, but its not the end of the world. The TCA's helped, so did exercise.Take Care.
