Hi HP, one more thing I forgot to add.. I have adhd so I freak out if my doapmine levels go down... go figure on that. I'm thinking that keeping it simple with my Luvox and trileptal will be ok for awhile. I can handle cat napping here and there until things settle in.

> Further, Trazodone which I've been on around 100 mg.-150 mg. before the bed also NEVER causes 'anxiety,' rather helps the Anxiety.

> Anxiety is a part of 'depressive side' of the Bp, then to be honest and frank with you, it's quite tricky to find really 'good' med. In my case, not only one med. but med. combo., one of which Zyprexa seems doing a good job along with Trazodone 150 mg. and Serzone 150 mg.
