I agree we are all so different. In my mind if your symptoms can be controlled with lower doses then all the better.

Did you just start the meds ? If so you may have to wait a little bit to see how you feel. If your symptoms are still there or are getting worse than tell your PDOC. He might adjust them.

I am not a good example, I have been told I am treatment resistant bipolar 1. What that means is over the years I have been on all the different meds for bipolar in different combos with not much relief. With most meds I had to stop because of intolerable side effects. They probably would have worked if I could have stayed on them.

Good Luck
