My new Psych (who is an Angel I swear) said anyone with Bi-Polar should never be on an anti-depressant, at all. And he is part time practice and part time in the Psychology field so I would trust his judgement because I know he is reading peer-reviewed studies.

I would look into Latuda (my miracle drug). As far as Klonopin, I found that is the only one (I've tried Xanax, Valium, etc) and it was the only one that actually took the anxiety away and didn't make me want to pass out tired. But everyones bodies is different. You could be the opposite with Xanax or Valium.

But def' look into Latuda. Its considered "New" and most doctors have ample amount of samples. I'd try it and see.
