I cannot sleep without xanax.
Most efficacious for my bipolar are selegiline and clozapine.

Selegiline is used for depression, Parkinson's disease and senile dementia. It is a MAOI and can interact with foods that contain tyramine (something found in fermenting foods such as sharp cheddar cheese).
I have been on the same combination of meds for about 4 years and I am stable on them.

Lamictal has worked wonders for me so far. I know everyone has different results to certain meds but that is def the one for me so far.

I haven't found one drug that works for me. I've been given or prescribed them all. So I go the natural route. It's 4 am and not working. LOL
