I'm back down to 75mg of wellbutrin because my pdoc thinks wellbutrin made me manic. I tried to tell him that studying for 18 hours a day and being stressed out of my mind because of finals is what made me manic and that this always happens around finals wellbutrin or not, but he didn't seem to believe me and lowered my wellbutrin and upped my perphenezine, which I feel is clouding my mind even more. Someone told me strattera can cause mania too, but I thought as long as you're on a mood stabilizer or an antipsychotic (or two antipsychotics and a mood stabilizer in my case) then you should be fine. I really don't think a higher dose of wellbutrin would hurt, and I think it WAS helping somewhat, just not very much. I'd rather try strattera. I'd REALLY rather have at least the chance to try a low dose stimulant to see if I can tolerate it because SO many people on this board in the bipolar section are on stimulants and seem to be fine. I think my pdoc is just being too careful. My hypomanias/manias are really not that severe or long and come under control really easily. I don't understand what he's so worried about.

It's specifically for people with adhd, and even if I turn out not to have adhd for whatever reason, I still think it will help me get organized. I should get it on Monday.

I haven't heard back from my pdoc yet. I kind of doubt he's going to answer me by email. It's really frustrating. So I have to wait until next friday to even get an answer and by then I already have a midterm, and won't have my disability services in place. Ugh.
