Yeah, Wellbutrin (in my anecdotal opinion

) would be a very unlikely choice anyway. It was more about dosage changes helping sometimes. Though it's one that tends to be better tolerated by BPers (than, say, SSRIs), it also has a reputation for causing agitation or aggression in some.
They've probably things yet to try. You may be on to something with the klonopin. Sometimes it's a matter of getting us to a physical/mental state (like mellowed) where we can better use our coping tools. That's how a T explained meds to me a number of years ago.
I've also heard people mention that Lamictal mellowed them out a bit. Can't remember if that's one you've tried yet or not.
Hmmm. Xanax. No idea what that dosage was (although if it was a lot, I personally can't imagine not falling asleep instead

), but if it gave you euphoria, it'd be a good idea to approach that with caution. You know, with its being highly addictive. I've asked people, because I couldn't really figure what people who weren't prescribed it got out of it, because I don't get euphoria. The klonopin is longer-acting, so more likely appropriate to try anyway.
Anyhow, I'm sure s/he'll come up with something to try.
