Working / Worked
Worked, but hit me like a sledgehammer. Fortunately, I was on it for only about a month. Effective, but knocked me out of whack -- I felt sluggish and zombified. Nevertheless, I think I needed it at the time.
Working / Worked
Good when I go so high, so low, or so mixed that I exibit psychotic features. Don't like it in the long term but good for a quick fix.

Only if I had crossed the point of mania to temporary psychosis. It was used only in a hospital setting, and they gave me an injection that knocked me out.
