Hi~

I'm recently diagnosed BP. I have MANY question's and not quite sure how to post each one.

I have only been on Wellbutrin for many years, yet fighting all the symptoms of BP without any therapist recognizing my illness. Only told me to stop drinking alcohol, which I'm really only a binger...
Now all the behaviors since I was a teenager makes sense. I'm now 52.

I have excessive spending, hyper-sexuality, alcohol issues, personality issues, relationship issues.

I have just started on Lithium (3 days ago) already feel better, as well as, stopping drinking a week ago.

My question's are:

Does Wellbutrin make many people go into mania? or will the new dosage of lithium balance it out.

Lithium dosages and success stories?

Does anyone still drink alcohol with Bp or did you have to stop? I personally want to completely stop.

Have the meds helped with hyper-sexuality and spending sprees?

I'm striving for balance and wellness and looking for comments of what has helped those with similar issues. I will post on proper thread's when I fugure out this site.

Thanks
