Hello everyone!
I go in the fibromyalgia forum occasionally, but today I decided to stop by this forum, and will do in the future.
I have many health problems...
I was finally diagnosed with bipolar II with rapid-cycling in 2008, five years after the onset.

Hello grazed knees,
Welcome to the Bipolar forum
I'm glad you stopped by. I'm sorry for hear about
your diagnosis. How are you doing? Are you taking any meds for your Bipolar or any therapy?
I hope to learn more about
you.
Take Care

UA,
Thank you and thank you for asking...
I have been in a mixed episode lately. I take lithium and cymbalta. I have been on most antidepressants and mood stabilizers, a few antipsychotics, but I have found that these are the two that work the best with the least side effects for me. I stopped going to therapy a few years ago, I stopped talking about
anything substantial after I worked through some main issues. Now I just see my psychiatrist.

I"m glad to hear that you found a combination that works for you.
I hope it will continue to work well.
