> I guess you're right, i'll go the long path. It just sucks to know that you have to struggle with/through what you are going through for another couple of months (although i've felt depression lift from 50mgs). But once i did race to get up too high, too quickly, and it ended up putting me in a mixed mood episodes for about a month.

Yes -- definately I would echo what has been said. My doctor was very conservative as are a lot of doctors of raising the dose. It goes up very slooooooowly until about 200mg before its proven you have no SJS rash potential. I imagine people who take much larger doses go on to raise a bit faster after that. Just a guess. That's how I did it anyhow.
