Hi,
About 4 weeks ago I was diagnosed with Bipolar 1 Disorder. I am currently on 200mg of Lamictal (100mg in the morning, 100mg at night), 30mg of Cymbalta, 40mg of Strattera, and 2mg of Risperdal. I believe that I have been in a manic state for about 6 weeks, and I'm still manic. Even with these meds it just seems to not want to go away. I'm wondering if anybody has experienced this stubborn mania and what you guys might have done to help lower the mania. I just can't stop moving and feeling like I have to be doing something all the time and feeling like I have to talk and I can't stop it! Please, I am sick of suffering from this stuff.
Thanks
