I think that is something you should ask your doctor or the pharmacist. But you may get some answers here. But I would talk to the doctor about this if it becomes a problem. This medication might not agree with you.

I hope that you get some answers soon.

Hugs, Karen

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. I'm not manic but at the same time, I'm experiencing laughing spells. I get silly and want to dance. However it makes me sedated and takes away the OCD with Serotonin + and so I don't have to worry about that growling bully on campus causing mischief with (my presence and performance being at school.) Zoloft has always agreed with me just saying.

I know some anti-ds did not help my husband (bipolar). He finally found effexor xr and lamictal were the right combo for him.

I think getting silly and wanting to dance would be nice-lol- as long as it is in an appropriate setting...this world is WAAAY too serious..

Hope you are doing ok

I dance around the house. Nothing wrong with that. Enjoy life... But yes, in an appropriated place and time. And I agree, the world is WAY too serious....
