Yes it's a lot, isn't it? You can see I'm a fan.
I've got rapid cycling bipolar II and my depressive crashes kept returning at the lower doses. They weren't as bad as they were before but they were still bad so I kept increasing the dose.
At 400 mg I still get crashes; I'm not sure if they are better than they were at 250 mgs. The effect of increasing the dose from 250 to 400 may have been temporary but it was definitely helpful at the time. I wouldn't want to lower it now for fear of what would happen.
