In the past, Wellbutrin had been considered to be the antidepressant least likely to trigger mania. I'm not sure the extent to which this is true.
> I'm wondering if you all have any suggestions on other options including supplements or somatic therapies to help depression without triggering mania and cycling?
A friend of mine has had good luck with adding agomelatine to Keppra and Trileptal to control his rapid-cycling bipolar disorder. He cycled between hypomania and severe depression once every 15 days.
Are you able to tolerate higher dosages of lithium?
