that's correct.

yeah I'm lucky that drugs don't trigger episodes for me but I hear u. totally do not recommend doing drugs. everyone's different.

yeah baseline is better than being depressed. thank God for lamictal. i just chase those highs.

anyway back to med effectiveness - ur right, if bipolar has once consistency it's inconsistency. my pdoc said himself, saucy I know u like ur hypomania so I'll take u off lithium and put u on lamictal. eh, was good for a while but I like being in control and mania is not controllable for me without meds. I just have a feeling next spring will be even worse and I'll need lithium again.
