I mistakenly thought I was "stable" since I was getting great sleep (with low dose Seroquel) and pretty much insulating myself against any stress. This is just not realistic.
I have been under terrible stress the past couple of weeks and I have had terrible manic episodes (irritability, rage, etc.)
I have ADD and take a small dose of Adderall. But I know for a fact that the Prozac my doc gave me only feeds the rage monster.
I need a mood stabilizer. I am TERRIFIED of gaining weight.
I am wondering what med I should add. I am thinking of adding back 450mg of Lithium. Would low dose Depakote be better?
I won't stick with a med that makes me fat or sleepy.
I just need stability. Can't take Lamictil.
And adding more Klonopin has not taken care of the problem.
