> trazadone and prothiaden... ?
Oops, stupid me didn't read properly. :)
Trazadone isn't a tricyclic it's in a class with Nefazodone(Serzone).
Prothiaden is the tricyclic called Dothiepin. It's one of the worst tricyclics to be on as it has been shown to be twice as pro-convulsant as any of the other tricyclics while not being as good as some of them.
If you are truely BP2, then you need to start a mood stabilizer. Lamictal would be a good start, what else do they let you have in merry old England? :)
Cheers,
