Mood Stabilizer! - Which one!?

Posted by b0rderline86 on April 1, 2007, at 4:39:13

Hey everyone, i have borderline personality disorder, i currently take 20mg of Escitalopram and about 50 mg of chlorpromazine across the day for depression, anxiety and night time agitation especially. I am about to start a mood stabilizer but i am unsure which one to chose from, my mood changes moderately 2-3 times a day, with more serious swings happening on a weekly basis. any input would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

Thank u for ur brief input, due to my own process of elimination i had lamotrigine in mind myself, good to know other would agree. my problem now is finding out how muc it is here in australia and if its available on PBS, or even if i fit the criteria to be prescribed it.
