I also have MS;(

I'm not understanding your question.

Are you asking opinions on certain meds ?

Are you asking what meds we bipolar people take ?

Are you newly diagnosed bipolar ?

I don't understand what you're asking either. What do you mean our information? Do you want others to share what they take. No offense how would that help you? Do you want to compare notes?

I think you forgot to tell us what "this" is.

I've just checked your profile. I see you have been prescribed valproate and don't like it.

I think the first step is for you to get a second opinion about bipolar if you are not sure - I'm assuming you did get a diagnosis and that's why you are on valproate.

So get a second opinion and then discuss alternative medications for bipolar if that is confirmed.

Do u take abilify?

No. But lots do.

you are probably better asking about member's experiences on the main board - I get the feeling it's pretty polarized, great for some, not so good for others.

I was on Abilify for two weeks. Couldn't take it.

I've taken Abilify before. I've had BiPolar for 26 years now. I also have MS and a slew of other medical issues.

Abilify was not a good fit for me, my major BP issue is crippling suicidal depression and for that Lithium and more recently Tegretol was the better choice along Anti-Depressants and usually Seroquel and an Anti-Anxiety med like Klonopin. My Cocktail was always a lil complicated to keep it working.

But Abilify just never did much for me.
