My main symptoms of my mixed episode was irritability, which is the whole reason I got a doctor in the first place.
Lamictal is starting to even out my moods a little, but I think I might need a higher dose.
Glad to hear your mood has stabilized.

Mixed episode? Irritability also is one of my problems. And that explains why I can have restless energy when my mood is low. Another piece of the puzzle fits in place!
