Fear of losing natural sharpness has had me avoiding antidepressants, which I should probably be on. Just too much fear about losing edge for math/programming.

Wellbutrin could fit here, it's energizing and doesn't make your feelings 'flat' but careful with the insomnia. I had to stop it because of that, and after a week or so of stopping it I started having tinnitus (the morning it started I woke up from a dream similar to EHS - exploding head syndrome) Could be related/unrelated, who knows.

Have you tried CBT therapy or other talking therapies? This helped me more than any anti depressants.
