> It seems like the withdrawal effect. But tendencies towards bipolar may be making you more susceptible to the withdrawal. (in my opinion) Stims are bad for bipolars. Are you on a stabilizer?
I have some Depakote I am trying out and it does help with my mood. I've been afraid of taking it because of possible weight gain. But, I can take a pretty low dose - 250mg - 500mg.
Maybe the depakote combined with the stimulant will curb the irritation and maybe even headache associated with the stimulant.
