No AD's work!! Is it bp2?Ritalin+Clonpn help a bit

Posted by francineus on March 2, 2008, at 18:19:31

Well, since no AD has helped me I'm off all AD meds. So right now am taking Klonopin .25 and Ritalin 10 mg both prn. The doc doesn't know, but he doesn't have to live in my head, so I can live with going against the rules to get some relief.

The ritalin really helps intermittently with giving me energy and has offered some AD relief. But it does cause speediness which Klonopin helps with.... Although it's not a perfect solution, it's keeping the crying spells at bay a little, and life is not as dark.

Since no AD has really helped me, my pdoc thinks I may be Bipolar II (but I have really had no mania-- just perhaps some irritability). I know he wants to try me on Lithium. Lamictal did nothing.
Haven't tried any other mood stabilizers.

Can you mix Lithium and Ritalin? What does everyone think about lithium as an AD?

Would love to get off of benzo.. think it may contribute to depression. Any advice? Haven't tried tofranil.
tianepine.

I feel like a hopeless case.
