Sac is right Lamictal might be a good option. Its generally prescribed with Lithium for BPII as these drugs seem to suit each other.
Don't knock Depakote completely off yet cause it works well with Lamictal for people with mixed episodes. (Lamictal may curb the sleepiness)
Also, atypical antipsychotics work well for anxiety, irritation etc. try zyprexa, seroquel or abilify.
