Does anyone else experience this? I'm a miserable, ultra-rapid cycling mess on my meds, but I'm getting more done than I have since before my bp got the best of me.

Is this a sign that I'm on the wrong meds, but coming closer to finding the right combination?

I don't think you should be ultra-rapid cycling, especially if its onset is medicine induced. Talk to your pdoc? It seems like you've had some sort of problem with the medication prescribed to you for a while now. Maybe if you print out some of the posts with your concerns it would be easier for you to articulate how you are feeling? (Because its easy to forget when you see the pdoc!)

Are you also going to counseling? You may have a therapist who can help you come up with coping mechanisms that can help you get through this until you find a combination of medication that can help you with minimum side effects.

I think it's a sign you are not on the right meds too. I think the point of meds is to bring about stability, I wouldn't know, I haven't found that either yet. Well I have a few times, even though short lived. I would question the wellbutrin for the rapid cycling, I have had that experience more than once with antidepressants, and not always right away.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
