My brain is the most useless part of my body (wasn't ever very smart) and for them know to tell me all along it is/was bipolar. I am coming on and going off so many drugs and making so many changes and not to mention this is all going on during the *&&^^%% holidays. Everyday I think great, this is it I am fixed, the next 2.... I am... lets just say not a nice person. Why after so many days on my Depakote am I so ANGRY or want to cry. Pdoc gave me clonazepam but I am not thinking it works. Bad thing is I saw Pdoc this week and everything was great and within 4 hours of leaving his office if I had of had a bat or gun damage would have been done.

It really may not be me at all and just my pain in the !@#$%^&* family/husband. Cuz it really seems to get worse the longer I am with them.
Thanks for this!

I forgot to add to the whole useless brain diagnosis I can't keep anything straight, I have a list check it 10 times still can't tell you what is on the list. I even forget the alarms that go off in the house or car what they are for. Guess that is why I have a 5 year around for. I know it is funny. But, will this go away?

How long have you been on the Depakote? I was on Depakote but it was not the right drug for me.

Next week after I get blood work done...I will try going back on the Adderall.

I wasn't very excited about that, but I will try anything. I just hate all this angry that build up in me, some from this site thought that the Adderall may have been a trigger. 6 weeks is when I go back again, and he will start talking to me about going to counseling.

Both my son and I have ADHD and both he and I have impulsivity. We have both tried several different meds for the ADHD to find what drug and what dose works well for us. I know how frustrating it is to say (or do) something impulsively and then wish you had said or done something different.

Lots going on - sounds medication isn't correct yet, causing irratic behavior. Foods: caffienee, sugar, not eating Can also flip your moods around.

I'm big time big polar, change through day. Wish T could see me when I'm in one of those modes.

I can go from nothing to chewing you're F'n head off.

And the closest person I know boyfriend what ever he gets the blunt of it big time

Bipolar is a -itch
Thanks for this!

My mom was like that when she was on depakote for migranes of all things. Not fun. She had to stop finally.
