I often fall into a major depression and shutdown after experiencing a very happy time in my life, for example, like when I take a vacation or when I got married. Anybody find an effective way of managing this?

I always seem to suffer more from the depression after special occasions

Yes. I take abilify and lamictal which is very effective in managing my bipolar depression on daily basis. It's the behavior that occurs after a special occasion I can't seem to manage
