I am on it also, and it has helped me a great deal. Not everyone is lucky that way, though.

I am not a dr , so I cannot recommend a medication, but there are other meds that don't ruin your weight or put you in a fog. It is trial and error. Talk to your dr about how you feel. Hopefully, they are receptive and can help you.View Thread

I am the motivated type person, but I can say that there are times when I don't have any motivation, and I am not depressed. Sometimes all I have to get done becomes a little overwhelming, and I am just plain unmotivated, but again, not depressed. Normally I live in hyperdrive, and get a lot done.View Thread

Posted by ttsmile
I have been diagnosed as bipolar disorder mixed. Bipolar 2 fits me very well, especially the high activity levels and lack of need of sleep, followed by a crash completely into depression. The dr diagnosed me after becoming very agitated and a little agressive on a tricyclic antidepressant. He put me on another anti-depressant--celexa, which did nothing for the depression (a little for the anxiety) but made me wound-up followed by crashing really low rather quickly. Now I am on abilify, wonderful medicine. I have no depression, thought tend to be rather impulsive and am needing sleep less. No full on mania, though. My question is, Is the implusiveness getting worse something I should be concerned about, or just learn to manage?View Thread

I see a family practitioner. Thank-you for responding. I'll put dr G in the title. I have been feeling so great, the first time in a long time. I don't want to change meds, but I was wondering if I needed to go back to my dr sooner than planned.View Thread
