Someone else posted Lamictal is more for the depressive side, that is what I was told too.

It seems you might need something for that horrible restlessness.

I haven't had a hypomanic episode in a long time. I did not get the restlessness with it just more energy. Those were the times I use to dive into projects. But if you are feeling agitated or restless, to me, that sounds more like a mixed episode. They are the worst and for me I need some extra medication until it passes.

Take care of yourself and keep us informed.
