I tried Lamictal but got a rash. Also tried Seroquel which helped at lower doses in conjunction with Effexor but at higher doses it was way too sedating. We've talked about Neurontin but haven't tried that yet. In the past I've taken Paxil for depression...sexual side effects were depressing in themselves.... Celexa worked great for a few years but eventually maxed that out and it no longer worked. Tried Serzone which worked at lower doses but at higher doses I was walking into walls and was really gorked. I'm wondering if an atypical AP with an antidepressant might work. Or maybe an AS used as a MS. I'm wondering if returning to Celexa might be a good bet since it worked so well before and it's been a couple years since I used it. It didn't seem to make me manic that I can remember. Has Geodon been used for BP? I can't remember if someone mentioned it for that or for depression.
Thanks for your help.
