I am diagnosed bp1 rapid cycling. I currently am taking Welbutrin, topomax and headache for sleep. I really like the welbutrin better than most that I have been on because it doesn't have as much weight gain as the rest of them do. But I still find myself struggling to take them all the time, especially when I start getting really stressed or if I find myself sliding into a depression. I try to tell myself that I won't do it again, but I always end up doing it. When I was on Lithium that was the best one and I felt so good but I was gaining weight so fast. I tried it again recently ad got toxic on it. It seems like I just can't win. Sometimes I hate being bipolar. Until im manic then I love it.
