Hi Krazy Kat--
I read your post and identified with it so much. I've pretty much got all that stuff going on. I'm taking 750mg of Depakote for rapid cycling bipolar II, which is the only thing that's slowed the cycling. I also take .25 mg of Risperdal for agitation and sleep. However, now I feel totally flat with no emotions.
I was wondering if you have tried adding something on to battle this. I'm thinking of bringing up Mirapex with my doctor. (someone suggested it earlier in this thread) I tried Abilify instead of the Risp., but it activated me to the point of insanity. But I can't help but feel this has something to do with all that dopamine blockage.
I am at my wit's end with this anhedonia sh!t. Any insights helpful (from anyone!)
thanks in advance,
Katy
