Here's the deal, I've been on Prozac, Zoloft, Trazadone, Wellbutrin, Paxil, Kolonopin, Xanex, Trileptal, Lamictal, Lexapro, Adderall & currently Lithium. I might have forgotten some!
The mood stabilizers I tried was during my 20's, I partied a lot. I don't know I really gave them a chance to work because I was partying. But I didn't feel they were effective. I also didn't have any stability in my life to measure that on.
So for now my psych has me on Lithium only. I also have a high deductible insurance plan now so I can't afford 2 medications. I just can't. I have to pay for it 100%, I'm not going to meet my $1,500 deductible by the end of the year for everything to be paid thereafter.
I'm an insurance agent & I consult large companies on their benefit packages, I totally am in the know with my coverage. I know I can't afford 2 medications.
So I need to schedule an appointment because my Lithium ran out & I have to see her to get it refilled. I still have episodes on my Lithium. I'm hypomanic, I wonder if another drug would help me better?
Or if I should just remain on only Lithium? Now I'm starting to feel like do I even have a point.

If any of you are hypomanic, what Rx cocktail is working for you?
