> Hi, I'm so sorry you're feeling so terrible. I just read another of your posts and our symptoms sound somewhat similar--depressed and angry and racing thoughts--no happy hypomanias, just constant crappy mood shifts. ugh. I have a little one too so I know how hard it is to keep it together.

Since Trileptal is related to Teg, perhaps you will get some relief without as much sedation? Or, I saw in another post you've taken a ton of meds so you've probably tried it already, but if not, perhaps Lithium?

Hi Butternut,

I mentioned Trileptal to him but he said he'd never heard of it. We're in Canada so I'm not sure.....

I took Lithium, tried it four different times. I became toxic on it very easily, and it caused me to become extremely agitated on it, even as low as 600 mg ..... :( :(
