Hi, I have rapid-cycling bipolar. I am on 100 mg buproprion and 7.5 mg L-Methylfolate( it's an extremely high dose of Folic acid which is used in the production of nuerotransmitters) for my lows and 20 mg loxapine, 300 mg Oxcarbazepine for the mania. I still can get bad depression and a controlled more subdued hypomania though. I might try increasing the buproprion and deplin for depression but than I'ld have to increase the antimania drugs too. The deplin really supercharged me with energy and motivation and killed my anxiety for about 3 weeks but then I returned back to normal, which was a real bummer. Anyone else try Methylfolate(Deplin)? My antimania drugs don't seem to have all the side effects like Seroquel so you may want to ask your doctor about the meds I am on. Anyone take these meds and how did they effect your mental illness?
I often get a lot of energy at night but often have absolutly no energy in the mornings. I can sleep for 14 hours straight with no problems. Anyone have similar issues.
