Hi Max,
Well, I have to say I DO take Lamictal-I started at 50mg at night over a week ago-something I took for a while-then stopped-and started again. This morning, I woke up feeling pretty good, not as manic. I posted another post about seeing how time with the meds kicking back in and if it gets worse-I will call my doc.
I am BipolarII and this morning is quite ok. I actually have this feeling of "everything seems brighter"-My head isn't clouded with fogginess-BUT I am still tired after 9 hours of sleep. That's where the Klonopin comes in-I am now going to titrate down from 2mg to 1/ 1/2 and so on. I get frustrated at times, like we all do,thus my posts may sound desparate. I think, like I've said, I am going to give, ESPECIALLY the Lamictal a chance-it IS for the hypomania?
I know it has done wonders for me in the past-that's why I went off-simply because I was doing good.
Thanks so much for your post
Kristen:-)

As so many told you before, why don't you get help from your pdoc? What are you waiting for? May be is it the time for a change, a new pdoc? I sincerely feel for you Kristen. Most of us aren't doctors here but you obviously need a mood stabilizer. Finally, if this helps(?), i might add that there is nothing but nothing in your current regimen of meds to prevent mania/hypomania (if that is what you experience, of course).

Good luck!

Max.
