Close Bipolar Disorder

bipolar, don't know which type yet

Treatments

Abilify Somewhat Helpful

made me shaky, was on it for a month, I don't if it really helped or not, wasn't in a state if of being able to self-awareness at the time

Ativan Working / Worked

always works for me

Celexa Not Working

gained 15 pounds, felt numb, didn't work for depression

Depakote Not Working

was on it for a couple of years from 11-13, don't remember much from that time

Geodon Somewhat Helpful

at the time it did what I felt it needed to do, which was turn my brain back upright from detoxing from self-medicating from alcohol, it is powerful stuff though and I won't be taking it again unless I am psychotic or something

Lamictal Working / Worked

felt like I was being poisoned, felt like I was in a fog, didn't have any mood swings though, hated the stuff though

Topamax Working / Worked

best mood stabilizer EVER! my moods are totally levelled out, started out at 163 and now at 147, I never flip out any more

Wellbutrin Working / Worked

it worked great and gave me energy for two weeks and dug me out of a hole, then it pooped out on me and then it slowly started working again, took it for pms too, took it for a year

Prozac Working / Worked

only antidepressant that I have actually trusted and stayed on the first two weeks though were the worst though I was more suicidal but I stiuck it out and now I feel much better I take 20mg a day and 40mg for pms
