> I am on two ad right now..lamictal and trazodone...and yet they dont seem to think its a bad thing to be on it..and yet at the same time they are considering wether or not im actually bipolar...im so confused.
>Hi Pandabear,
Lamictal isn't an AD, it is a mood stabilizer that has mild AD effects. If you have no problems taking it, it would be great for you.
Trazodone is a very weak AD that is good for sleep, sleep is important to BiPolars becuase poor sleep can cause full blown Mania. I'd consider it optional if your sleep is already good.Cheers,
Panda.
