> What is your Trileptal dose? I am asking because I will probably be trying that next..apointment tomorrow. I am taking a low dose of zoloft and a LOW dose of lithium. If your trileptal is a therapeutic dose, you could keep the lithium at 600 and get a good result. Low dose lexapro may help with the depressive end as well.

How did your appointment go? Did you get the Trileptal? After only one dose of trileptal, depression lifted, calling all my friends, visiting them, and went on a date. things I haven't done in a year.

Although the low dose of 600mgs so far is inducing a little happy hypomania, doc said this should settle as we go up. I might try 900 of lithium, as long as the stoned depersonalzation feeilng doesn't come back.

Good luck, and lets us know.

Regards,

Brian
