> It definitely has an antidepressant effect for me. I'm taking 150mg/day now and I stopped it for a few days and definitely got more depressed. Started it back up again and I feel better. It has a tendency to *reduce* my sleep duration however. I take the 150mg midday now and it definitely has an activating effect for me.
>Would you say that you are Bipolar II ?
I'm wondering if I should try it for my condition. I cycle but I don't ever feel manic or hypomanic. Just sometimes I feel like I'm recovering and then a couple of days later I'll be back at the bottom of the bottomless pit. I don't know if many mood stablizers help with mostly depressed cycling.Vince
