My pdoc started me on a very low dose as well (25 mg. daily and will titrate up every 2 weeks as tolerated). Obviously, I desperately want this to work, along with the Celexa I was put on in January (which made the hypomania even worse at first) and the lorazepam I was already on. Being a nurse, I'm way too conversant with meds in general to be able to just stand back and observe how something affects me, and of course I really want life to be simple and for me to be stabilized on the first BP med I try.

So maybe I'm a bit premature....but I can't deny the fact that it's there, a tiny pilot light of hope burning in the distance.
