> Here in Canada the *only* thing approved for bipolar is Lithium. The doctor won't perscribe anything that isn't approved, not even Depakote.
>i'm in canada... i had a doc in the UK put me on depakote but it didn't work (very high dose).... then a doc here (ontario) put me on zyprexa (only 3.75mg) and i am euphoria-free ...
i'm sure you can find a doc to give you a different mood stabilizer...... remember you can always go for a second opinion
