Thanks for replying. I've been reducing the Klon. by .5 mg every 2 weeks. I should be going from .5 to .25 mg tommorrow, but I may go up some.

I went to the ER because I've never before experiended what I experienced today. I was quite depressed for a couple of hours, then I very suddenly "lit up" like a lightbulb aout 5 pm. My mood never went past normal to exuberant, but I had many of the other hyper type symptoms of hypomania. I more clearly understand why the 4 docs involved in my treatment split 2 - 2 over whether I was BP or had dep. with anxiety. Today seemed like a mix of the two.

The ER wasn't much help -- like I expected. I was told that I could increase my Klonopin slightly, but that 3 mg of Lunesta should not be exceeded.

This is all new to me so -- I'm better for the time being -- but don't know what to expect in the future. I'm of the opinion that I won't cross the line into full blown mania. For now I just want to get more sleep!!
