I was on Depakote, Lamictol, Geodan, Paxil and Topamax. I gained 65lbs and still was not living life. I did (what I don't recommend) drank after 8 years and went off the meds entirely. I went back to work (mania) working early and staying late. This went well for awhile until they stopped the overtime. Now I can't get to work. I'm depressed and I need some suggestions to get back on the beam. I want to be up rather than down....and this is week 3 now I'm sitting on the couch at 2:49 pm in the afternoon....thinking what should I do?
This is not in response to the last posting only and add on.

Please help!
