I am right there with you on being hospitalized.
The only reason I mention depakote is because it is often better than lithium at treating mixed states. Would you consider it just for a few months? Then maybe go down to a low dose(it does have neuroprotective properties and a low dose may not give you the side effects while still helping to maintain mood).
How long have you been on paxil? I'm just trying to make sense of him taking you off it so abruptly.
