      I see you take Trileptal and say it helps. My doctor recently gave me a prescription for this. Is beneficial in treating bipolar?

      I have co-occuring ADD and BP.

      Treatments

      Adderall Working / Worked
      Increased focus

    • Open Bipolar Disorder

      Treatments

      Depakote Not Working
      Geodon Not Working
      This med brought on hallucinations for me. Actually some of the most terrifying times of my life--though not all could be attributed to Geodon.
      Lamictal Not Working
      Warning! I had a reaction to this med in which my lymph nodes in my neck and head swelled. The pysch said it wasn't the meds, but the ear, nose, and throat doc told me to go off, and it went away immediately. I had to do the research to find out about this side effect: it does happen to some.
      Lithium Working / Worked
      But dulled me and gave me serious stomach problems
      Seroquel Somewhat Helpful
      But oh so tired in the am
      Tegretol Working / Worked
      My favorite
      Topamax Working / Worked
      My second favorite
      Trileptal Working / Worked
      My third favorite--on it now.
      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      The best thing I can do for myself is make sure I get 30 minutes to an hour of exercise 5x a week. Amazing results!
