john, you are a true blessing!
I am definately a bipolar 2....the amino acids and 5htp sound alot more promising to me than the lithium, only because I just haven't had any success at with all the mood stabilizers I've taken, including the Topamax I'm now taking.
Wow, what a great response from the 5htp you've had! I'm in such a depression and my fogginess is in the form of not being able to concentrate, focus, organize, etc. Something I feel lithium would just make worse. I will definately check into 5htp. I know I can get this at the health food store, right?
I've been reading some about taurine and tyrosine too, and they also sound quite promising. I will check into these also.
I wonder what reactions any of these would have with my current meds (Effexor and Topamax)?
And what about inositol?
Thank you so much!
