An appointment with my pdoc yesterday did not result in an explanation as to why I'm dysphoric. He said to take Gabitril, 2 to 4 mg. twice a day. It's too soon to present an analysis of it.

oh i should clarify

a) abilify kicks butt
b) my current mania is not dysphoric (bad) just not as pleasurable as without meds... it's still great to see all of these opportunities around me and want to take advantage of all of them
c) i could easily go back to complete stability by raising my dosage back to 3 mg? or so
