Hmm, that sounds tricky... How about writing a document with your reactions to medications, and do something like a comparison table between how you felt like on AD's vs how you fel like on mood stabilisers. Say you're not questioning the diagnosis (in case that gets their back up), but just that maybe you're somewhere in the grey zone and you feel that overall ADs improved your quality of life more than mood stabilisers did and could you give them a try again, under medical supervision? Impress them with your thoroughness, calmness, and rationality. It's all I can think off... hope it's of some help.
