Hi,I am exactly in the same situation you are (just diagnosed BP2). Sucks, doesn't it? At the same time it just makes me look at my life quite differently. Am I not sure who I am anymore.
I have been on paxil for about two years and it did help to improve (but certainly not cure) my depression. It made me feel flat though. Recently, I switch to a cocktail of Effexor and Amitripthyline that had horrendous effects on my mood (e.g. drove me over the edge) but it is too early to really tell. Anyway, I can't help much but wanted to let you know that you are now alone. If you find out about it though, I'll try the pig mixture any day ;)
