Welcome! I am also new. While I don\'t have a journal my meds are listed out there. I\'m wondering how effective Lamital is for your mania. I went from Depakote to Risperdal which both worked fine. Lithium may also be an option.

I am also new to this community. I joined for the same reasons you did. I wanted to make friends and find someone I \"click\" with (if that\'s possible). I\'m tired of feeling alone.

hi friend. Sorry my hug yesterday was a downer. i am usually more positive. I\'m trying to get adjusted to tegretol and it seems to be a slow irritating process. You are not alone. I\'m here and still happy to be your friend

I\'ve been on Equetro since spring and think that it is a newer version of Tegretol. My doctor is going to check my Tegretol level next month. I can\'t remember if he just needs to be sure it is in a medically effective range or what. So far I\'m happy with the stuff that I\'m reading and able to share out here.

I am new to the neighborhood too. I have enjoyed reading and responding and find myself here often. I keep telling myself I will go "after this one". So, I think it is helpful to read and write to others. I have been reminded that I am not the only one who "doesthis" or "thinks this way". I am glad I discovered this site. I am not the only misunderstood one out there I haven't read my "manual" in a long time" haha

Welcome! Hope this board is helpful to you and offers a few laughs as well.
