My therapist keeps pushing it on me but I've never been on a mood stabilizer and am scared I will lose 'my edge.'

------if you are truly bipolar, you almost have to have a stabilizer. There are many. All bipolars are afraid of losing their edge, but many incredible people we all have heard of did better with a stabilzer. If you become numb, the dose is probably wrong. You need a regular doctor w lamictal. This is a coincidence because my t suggests it but my docs are more hesitant because i get stress confusion and mess up dosages.
