Hi
I have problems somewhat similar to your. Livelong dysthymia with atypical features and double episodes.
My best result so far, has been a combo of Abilify and Prozac. Prozac seems to remove the sleepiness caused by Abilify (and by the illness itself). The only problems I had with this combo was the usual sexual side effects from Prozac.
My dosage was:
Prozac 20 mg
Abilify 2 mg
It should be noted, that Prozac will increase the blood plasme level of Abilify considerably.
I have tried Risperdal too, but with little success.
I believe, that Prozacs positive effects are due to HT2C antagonism. I will therefore try to substitute Prozac with Valdoxan in the near future, hoping that this will remove the sexual side effects.
I hope this can help you.
