Hi, I'm new here. I have bipolar 2, with lots of mixed episodes. I guess I have the rapid cycling also. I used to b on Paxil 20mg, then added lamictal 200mg. The lamictal worked like magic to make mind behave in a way I had long forgotten. I thought after a while that maybe I only neede the lamictal so I tapered off Paxil. That was a year ago. 4 months of anxiety later I was prescribed Prozac which I took for a few months. Then I tried again to quit. From thanksgiving through February I was depressed. I finally third zoloft(no good) and now I am trying effexor. This time I'm going to stay on antidepressants. This time I got so agitated that I lost control of my words and thoughts. Nearly quit my job. Flipped out on my boss. Stormed out of a bingo in front of my daughter. You get the point.
I needed to get that off my chest
I need to know that I'm not alone and not the only one to behave like that

Thanks for listening
