I've been diagnosed with bipolar for the past 5 years and in that time I've had every antidepressant .They either work for a month or 2 or the side effects are so bad that I can't continue on them. I've also had ECT to try and lift my depression but that only had a minimum effect. Now I'm on no medication at all because it was not doing anything, I spend more time being depressed than being manic.
I don't know where I am at present and I don't know where to turn to next. Guess we will just keep trying anything my doctor sugests
