I know the newer stigma about ssris inducing mania and instability.
I have BPII and ADHD. I've begun Lexapro+Depakote+Dexedrine.
The ssri helps me with socialability (like my normal self), but seems to add or cause more mood instability.
Plus I can only sleep regularly on an SSSRI.
But I have also noticed that I need about twice as much of the stimulant if using an ssri.
Lamictal is an exhausted option for me (insomnia, anxeity, naseau/headaches)
If it's just depakote/dexedrine, i don't feel depressed, but im not social. I'll hyperfocus and just do my own thing, plus sleep is crap.
So there's my dilema and crossroads.
I'd appreciate some help/advice/suggestions.
You guys are the best.
Depakote+Provigil I was very social on, but I still couldn't concentrate on the job (plus depakote makes me stupid)
It it too much to have Provigil+Dexedrine+Depakote?
I'll stop now
