Best combo I have ever tried is Zyprexa and Lamictal. I feel genuinely happy, something I haven't for years.

My research leads me to believe that it is the lithium causing it, and I'm on a relatively moderate dose. It's a major daily issue that I have to plan my life around (when to eat, one meal a day in the morning, etc.) and would love to not have to deal with this any longer.
So my question to everyone is, what mood stabilizer or mood stabilizer/antipsychotic would not cause diarrhea? I have a psychiatrist appointment in the next couple of weeks and want to request a change in medication.
Thanks for your help!
