bipolar disorde
"Had a weird manic/mixed night so put myself up to 300mg from 150 while dropping Effexor from 300mg to 150. Went completely nuts and very confused (another manic/mixed night oddly enough, that felt about the exact same as the former) but now it's been 2 more weeks since I switched the dosages, so a month total, and I feel FAR more normal than I have in 7 years. Seems antidepressants really are the devil for bipolar disorder, which I never truly believed until now. That being said, I'm fairly certain I needed Effexor at one time. Don't know what I'd do without this med actually.



If you need a Dr to request approval for your insurance coverage (remember Plan G if you're on the poor side), that will work instead of e.g. taking lithium."
