Actually I am on no meds at the current time.

I am surviving on a home built rTMS unit, a little fish oil, and tons of exercise.

I had somewhat of a manic episode (which I believe was not due to bipolar disorder but rather extreme stress and other factors) last year and I think the prolonged glutamate activity dammaged some of my visual neurons. I know its a paranoid little theory but hey. I'm taking a bit of a break off of antidepressants right now.

I am trying some other things. Its my summer break right now. It is somewhat risky in that I could lapse back into depression but I am going for tuns of exercise 3-4 hours a day. Eventually when school starts again I will probably need to go back on meds.

I built a rTMS device that I am using. I beleive it has some efficacy but only time will tell.

The exercise does seem to be clearing up my vision. As well, the time off of AD's (and exercise) is helping my sence of ballance. I get terrible dystonia and motion imballance on ssris.

I really want to try nardil because I had such an amazing responce to SJW (before poop out), but doctors won't prescribe it untill many other things have been tried.
