I have a possible bipolar 2/3 diagnoses though never been manic but have been antidepressant induced irritable and sort of hypomanic that only lasts a day then I crash. My question is...are there any mood stabilizers that don't ravage cognition? I already have cognitive problems and the depression causes cognitive problems on top of that. The mood stabilizers I've tried, li, lamictal make my cognition even worse rendering me unable to work or function. I'm in a catch 22. Lamictal I found to be at times helpful for my mood but I need to be able to work and function. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated...
