I have a friend in the program that takes dilantin(sp?) to prevent depression from reoccurring. After many years flipping from "normal" into near catatonic depression, the docs finely found out (somewhat by accident) that what was sending her into depression was a form of epilepsy - apparently in an area of her brain that deals with mood. She's been depression free for 9 years now - on anti seizure medication!
