> My question is when do you stop? Maybe, how do you stop? When nothing's working very well after all of this, do you just go on to the next med variation they come up with while you're trying out your last one? Or do you just say, enough.
I guess it depends on what alternative treatments you have access to and how severe your condition is when untreated. It is a very personal decision.
Low-dose lithium combined with Lamictal or Trileptal along with a MAOI might be worth looking into. I have to imagine that there are some combinations that you have yet to explore. Which drugs have you had any kind of positive response to?
