The Phelps website is a good one--it really hit home for me.
It's amazing how ignorant a lot of pdocs seem to be regarding the mood disorder spectrum. I get manic from Neurontin, and when I've told this to my docs, they think I'm crazy (no pun intended). I know this is a generalization, but they seem to forget that everyone has a unique makeup.
I'm really frustrated; my family noted how "even" and "calm" I am from the Lithium, but I can't tolerate the side effects. I'm seeing my pdoc this week, so I'll discuss it with him, but I'm at my wit's end with the whole trial and error thing.
