I was diagnosed with a lot of things before they finally figured out it was Bipolar, and it has all taken a pretty massive toll on me and my body. The medication train is not a fun one, of course they say it all pays off in the end....I'm waiting for that to come.

One doctor said I was type 2 but then I saw another doctor who didn't think it was very normal for me to think there was someone living in my roof or to think there was someone in my house every night. So they shifted me onto anti-psychotics, which has been pretty good since I can finally sleep now, although I still hate going to bed...it's boring and a waste of my time.

I got married this year, it was beautiful but slightly over shadowed by my medication changes and my mental stability coming and going.

I am now on 200mg of Lamotrogine, 10mg of Saphris at night and 100mg of zoloft. I am extremely happy to not be on Seraquel anymore since it made me gain a whole lot of weight and gave me horrible nightmares and believe me that is a big thing for me since my dreams were already a mess without it.

I was hoping someone could let me know if they are on any of those medication mixes and how they faired on them as I have only started Saphris and Zoloft a few weeks ago.

Also if anyone has any tips when it comes to sexual drive, because mine is suffering a lot due to the drugs.
Sorry to hear! My guess would be Zoloft! SSRIs tend to do that, and cause sexual dysfunction! Simple solution-just take the amino Acetyl L-Carnitine! Works wonders!! Best of luck!!
