Not to muddy the picture! you just started....but a mood stabilizer may be worth considering.
I myself am taking Lamictal, a mood stabilizer used fairly well with bipolar that has a heavy depression element. It is weight-neutral--something that can't be said for many of the other mood stablizers!, only thing to watch for is a very bad rash--but if you go up slowly on it, usually it is OK.
Again, not to already add another med so soon---but if by chance you go to a pdoc soon and don't have time to cousult this board, thought I'd bring it up so you can at least mention it....there are other too, just this is the one I have some personal experience with.
