As of *now* (since pdoc visit of yesterday):

Neurontin 100mg 3x daily.
Klonopin .5-1.0mg total daily
Zoloft 12.5mg divided over a week (yes that's right-exceptionally sensitive to SSRI's)
Wellbutrin 1/4 of a 75mg IR tab 3x daily.

dx-BPII rapid cycling, adult ADHD, social phobia, seasonal recurrent major depression.

During April/May and late September-late Nov. (about now) I sometimes need 125mg of Depakote sprinkled here and there to keep my highs from getting a little *wacky*.

Prozac I liked (for attentiveness+sociability), but it could get very agitating at times. I had a "free-floating" panic attack after a dose increase on it once and I have had maybe 2 or 3 of those over 30 years.

good luck
