My depressive symptoms are much better controlled (see med list below and maybe my self care like exercise helps depression more) than my sneaky hypomania which comes on slowly, makes me fun and energized but then a little farther up and I am jangled, poor at prioritizing, cant choose direction in selecting or proceeding toward goals, agitated, irritable, oversharing, tactless. I want to get off wellbutrin. Cant take antipsychotics, really bad for me. Hate to rely on Xanax and never have.
More tegretol gives me word loss. What are the alternatives? IDEAS, please.
