Hi, Here are a few more ideas about anti convulsants. I am bipolar 1 with extreme manic high and depressant lows. I am on three anticonvulsants for my bipolar disorder, lamotrigine 200mg HS(lamictal)for my depression, neurontin 3600mg TID(gabapentin) for my mania, and topamax 600mg HS for both my mania and depression. I am also on and antipsychotic risperdal (respiridone)6mg to help with psychosis and mania. This coctail seems to be working very well for me now although it took some getting used to as well as some fine tuning. I also take Nozinan 25 mg for sleep when I am manic...when I'm depressed I have no problem with sleep. Hope this is of some help, Rebecca
