Hi everyone!

My name is Olivia and I'm a 22 year old student in San Francisco. I was recently diagnosed with Bipolar II after being misdiagnosed with clinical depression and having a bad reaction to the medications. I also suffer from Anxiety disorder, and PTSD. Bipolar has made the past few years of my life incredibly difficult to get through, especially with school. It's ruined my relationships and sometimes feel like I've completely screwed myself out of ever being successful . However, I finished my first semester for the first time in a year and a half after recently taking mood stabilizers! I'm starting to feel like a fairly functional human being for once and am actually pretty optimistic. I just wish I got help sooner. The diagnosis makes most of my life make a lot of sense now.

'm currently taking 50 mg of lamictal and .5 mg of clonezepam. So far it's been great but I'm worried about taking too much of the lamictal (i take iit easy with the clonezepam)? I haven't felt much effect in the difference in dosage. Is there such thing as being over prescribed mood stabilizers?

Nice meeting you all!
