well, theres only one way to really find out what will work for you, but i think clarifying the bipolar would be a good idea when deciding on whether to start an AP or AD first. if you are taking meds availible in the states, for you bipolar i guess i'd suggest ziprasidone or abilify first, since they are pretty low on the long-term side effects, although probably not quite as effective. i guess i'd try valproate next. if the mood stabilizer gets rid of some of the 'anxiety' stuff but isn't doing much for depression, you could add an maoi.
