Your battery theory is very interesting. I've certainly felt this way in the past.
A while back, I started a thread called "the dramatic rise of mental illness." One of the camps theorized that the increase in mental illness over the years started happening right around the time that psychiatric drugs came into widespread use. Another camp posited that the increase in mental illness was simply the result of greater awareness of mental illness. It was a very good thread.
At times, I feel like I've permanently screwed up my brain chemistry by taking these drugs. My problems seem to get worse over time. Of course, this could also just be the natural course of the illness(es).
