I'm now on 150mg of Wellbutrin SR in the mornings.
Then 2-3 mg of Kalonapin (I'm sure I spelled that wrong) at night.I have SEVERE insomnia and that is my primary problem. I'd suspected Cyclothymia only because in addition to the life-long SEVERE sleep disorder I sometimes talk fast and sometimes get over social or anti-social.
Basically though things are working great currently. I'm going off all meds in summer so I can go to a sleep clinic to get a full proper insomnia diagnosis (I suspect Delayed Sleep Phase Insomnia Disorder---look this up on google because it's often mis-diagnosed as a mental disorder i.e. Cyclythymia/bipolar). They have cognitive behavior treatments to reset your sleep patterns and a sleep regimine to follow to keep healthy sleep patterns.
I'll keep the forum updated on the delayed sleep phase disorder sometime by summer.-
