Bipolar Disorder Support Group
Bipolar disorder is not just a single disorder, but a category of mood disorders marked by periods of abnormally high energy and euphoria, often accompanied by bouts of clinical depression. This is the place to talk about your experience with bipolar disorder, learn from others' experiences, and find support.
My Psyciatric Nurse Practioner say it look like my current meds aren't working for me anymore and I agree. She gave me literature for several new medications. Those are Latuda, Vraylar, rexulti and Trintellix. Before I make a final decision, I would like you opinion.
So far I'm leaning toward Latuda but that's not written in stone. Hugs everyone.

Why do they want you off the Seroquel, have you had side effects? You do have a say in what meds you take. If the Seroquel is working, and that means you're having more Stable periods than symptomatic periods of Depression or Manic/Hypomanic Eps. then stay on the Seroquel. They're both used as Mood Stablilizers and but Lamictal is an Anti-Seizure med and tends to have less severe side effects than the Anti-Psychotics and some Pdocs prefer that. Seroquel can also cause heavy weight gain.
All in all you have the input on what meds you want to take.
Thank you and God bless everyone.
