I am on the fence on whether I have more than depression and anxiety. Actually my pdoc is not much help so far. All I know is that I have felt better on anticonvulsants like gabapentin. I get AD induced hypomanias. I have a moderate chance of having ADHD (impulsive-hyperactive) type.

My pdoc has changed my meds about 10 times in six months. I am so confused as to whether I have bipolar II and or ADHD. I do know that I have mood swings. They are not the highs like mania when I am not on ane AD and they are not hormonal. I just know that I have a mood disorder. I am generally in a bad mood when not taking an AD.

What this leaves me, I don't know. My pdoc just switched me from 2700 mg of gabapentin/day to 150 mg trileptal twice a day. This makes no sense to me as far as dosage.

What is he doing? How will this help him decide? I usually have theories but I am just lost with this guy.

Any theories?
