As a refresher - what conditions are you treating?
What do you think would happen if you were to discontinue the Nuvigil and Neurontin?
Adding nortriptyline or desipramine to Brintellix is an interesting idea.
Personally, I find Focalin much more helpful than Adderall for treating my bipolar depression.
I'm having good luck with prazosin.
Pindolol never quite made it as an augmentor of SSRIs. At most, it is an "accelerator" of SSRIs and helps produce an improvement earlier in treatment. I would be surprised if it were to be helpful in the long-term. It would be great if you were to surprise me. :-)
You might be able to reduce the dosage of topiramate to 100 mg/day. It will help prevent metabolic acidosis, decreased concentrations of blood bicarbonate, and kidney stones. Does topiramate help prevent mixed-state hypomania or depression?
