Hi:
I truly understand your 'endless' struggle brought by mental illness you've been carrying for so long.In my suggestion, ... Anti-psycho. med., such as 'Seroquel,' 'Zyprexa,' 'Geodon,' and 'Risperdal' could alleviate your symptoms as reading all of those 'traditional' psycho. meds. have NO effect on your problems. Besides this, ... it sounds to me like you have some 'Bipolar' trace, for which your pdoc. rxed Trileptal, one of reputable mood-stabilizers.
In my knowledge from the reading/hearing, dual dxes such as yours is VERY complex M.I. for most of pdocs. to deal with. I have no idea at which state you live, ... but my pdoc. is one of the *best* pdocs. in the region where I live, ... one of the biggest cities in U.S.A. I too have complex form of Bipolar illness, 'ultra-rapid cycler' with Bp II. For this form of Bp, most of pdocs. do NOT have a good clue to rx appropriate med. combo. in the first place. In this regard, I feel I am VERY lucky to find my current pdoc. I went through four different pdocs. until I bumped into my current pdoc. I highly recommend my pdoc. if you live close-by.
In my opinion, ... your case must be handled with a right med. combo. rather than CBT, due to the severity of your M.I. about which you're describing almost on every sentences in your post.
H.G.
