Ive been doing some research on meds for bp2. And they actually scare the crap out of me. the meds i am currently on are not for bp2 (except a fairly low dose of lamictal) but years ago, when i was more suicidal than now, i was put on a wonderful (being sarcastic) combo of paxil, lithium, zyprexa and depokote. And I was in a brain fog and felt really awfull to the point where I threw away all the meds (i know bad idea) and stopped cold turkey on all of them. Needless to say i went through a period of hell after that. Plus, I believed that my pdoc was a quak for having put me on AP meds etc. because i didnt think i was crazy. Anyway. Now I know I am bp2 and some of the meds i mentioned above are prescribed for this and I dont want to be on those meds. I looked up some info about geodon, the no weight gain sounded good, except it says it causes sedation and I hate that feeling. So, does anyone have any idea of meds that I could suggest to my pdoc????
Thanks
