For me its hard to predict...usually I can't predict hypomanic, it just happens so fast. But for me, usually hypomania leads to mania...but not all the time. Like, if i forget my meds for a few days...which happens a lot, cuz i'm scattered...I will start to feel hypomanic. If i start taking my meds again, sometimes it will curb the mania, but not always.
maybe it would be a good idea to keep a journal of your moods? Then maybe you could see a pattern to your cycles?
I personally like Lamictal a lot because i have had no side effects and it works. I've been on 4 or 5 other antipsychotics that didnt help and had nasty side effects, so I'm a bit biased on Lamictal...heh.
