> I'm not stable #1. Lyrica has not been weight neutral for me. If I can't lose weight then it will end up being a deal killer. Also, bipolar depression, constant sleeping. It has helped on the sleeping part.
> I'm at the point that I'll drop any med I have to to lose weight. It's more a threat to my health than bipolar at this point. I'll suffer if that's what it takes. Just keep clonazepam and Lamictal and ask my doctor to get creative.I'm sure you know that Parnate is a good choice for difficult cases of bipolar depression. I lose a bit of weight when I take it. I lose lots of weight when it is combined with desipramine.
How do you react to methylphenidate (Ritalin, Concerta, Metadate, Focalin)?
Interestingly, some people become less anxious and irritable when taking amphetamine. I guess this would be considered a "paradoxical" reaction.
