Hmm.
If you're noticing sudden drop-offs in mood...
1) (of course) look at which meds might be kicking out when - i.e. IR methylphenidate. Not sure if you're using a slow release version.
2) perhaps look to resume a low dose of lithium (?) even 150mg might help prevent some of the drop-offs. Also, the use of emergency meds (like Ritalin) can be helpful for this.
When your mood drops off, is it a certain time of day, or is it kind of like a sudden relapse for a few days at a time?
