5 hr energy drinks do zilch for me. What I do instead is coffee. But I find that I have to abstain for weeks at an end to finally get to feel the effects of a cup.

That said, I don't think caffeine is a mood stabilizer. It can wreak havoc with sleep (points finger at self), and cause withdrawal headaches if drinking coffee. Unfortunately drugs, herbal or medicinal drugs seem to be more effective.

25 mgs of Seroquel at night
300 mgs of Trileptal, taken AM and PM
