I doubt there are bipolars who took a mood stabilizer, found it helped and was tolerable, and then just decided not to take it.

I've tried lithium and trileptal. Trileptal did nothing and lithium did not help my depression, but the side effects were horrible. Couldn't work and the acne and constipation we're unreal, and my blood level was only .8. And yes, I gave it an adequate trial: three months.
