Hi Guys..

I am also a Bipolar man. I was just crawling internet to find some more info on this killer disease when I found this forum. I read most of the posts here and agree with all of you that diagonosis of Bipolar is most difficult thing. I was also treated for eight years for Major Depressive Disorder. Luckily for me I was on very low dose of Fluoxetine 20mg and it did not damage a lot of me except lots of money on overspending on high days.

For last one year, I think I am in right hands of a known Psychiatrist. I have been put on Epilex Chrono 500 alongwith Lametec 50mg twice a day as mood stabilizer. Then, I have been given Clonazepam 0.5mg whenever I move towards a high to bring me down and Prothiaden 25mg/75mg to bring me up when I am low.

Life is like a roller coster for me. Before going to right hands, I had alsmost died in two unsuccessful sucide attempts. But, after these mood stabilizers I am much better.

Regards,

Rajeev
