My doc gave me some samples today of a new BP drug called Symbyax. It is supposed to be good for antidepression and anxiety. We are not sure what I am :() I have manic spells where I can't sleep, but usually it's related to medication. I get so irritable sometimes with my kids that I find myself screaming at them and I can't really stop. I want to stop that behavior. I can't stand being such an ill-pill. I have told my husband that sometimes I get so mad, I can just sling a cup across the room just because the cup isn't the right color, or something stupid. The thing is, I don't have depression. Or I don't think I do. I consider myself a very positive person, and generally in a pretty good mood most of the time. It's just those days when I feel like my nerves are SHOT that I want to fix. Does this sound like BP to any of you?? I am/was on Lexapro, but am trying this new med due to Lexapros sexual side effects and the weight gain. Lexapro works beautifully for nerve problems, though.
