Ha, I like the idea of a meds regimen being "clean, modern." Like a brand new kitchen ;).

I haven't read much on Abilify for Bipolar I. Not sure Lamictal alone could stop mania, so definitely a mood stabilizer of some kind with it at any dose. I do have cognitive problems with Lamictal -- definitely can't find words sometimes, and I think I used to be smarter. And my memory is shot -- I can't remember Monday.

I used to have a guy pdoc and he let me do whatever I wanted with my meds. Not sure that was always the best idea. Now I have a female pdoc and she's conservative, I'm surprised she's willing to go higher with Lamictal. Go figure.

Isn't it...sad? frustrating?...that many of us are on this board because we don't entirely trust our pdocs to pick the right medication for us?
