Never even heard of that med so I can't be of any help on that one. I'm so sorry about your GF. I think it was Marilyn Monroe said something about " If you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best." It's hard to find them but there are people out there that can and will handle you being bipolar. And don't be sorry about ranting here. Heck if you can't do it here then where can you rant?
