> I am currently taking Lithium 900 mgs. Recenly I started experiencing really bad side effects so my doctor took me off. He put me on Trilepital and it made me SO depressed. Has anyone had any sucess with a medication for Bipolar II after having been on Lithium? I seem to have lots of Anger episodes. What is good for Anger?

As you said in your last post, stopping the lithium all at once probably isn't helping.

The Trileptal is making you depressed but Tegretol, which is almost the same med as ( but people respond differently) is suppose to work well for rage.

I hope going back on the lithium at a low dose will help for now.
