Does anyone have rapid cyclying bipolar and a seizure disorder? I have problems treating them both, can you help?

You've probably tried all of the anti-seizure medications that are often used as mood stabilizers, too. Have you ever used Lamictal or Depakote?

I do not have a history of seizures, but I'm on Lamictal and it's helped to even me out. By itself I don't think it's enough, but in combo with Celexa and Wellbutrin it's great. My BP type sounds different from yours - I'm BP 2 with stronger depressive tendencies.

Please elaborate on what methods and/or meds you've tried to control your dual conditions.

I have found the miracle drug, non addicting, no side effects, pretty cheap and you dont need a presxcription, If you are on the depressive side, then you may waant to te=ry this, I was on 8 differet meds for 5 years, i hated the side effects, and the down feeling, well i take a diet pill called bontril and i have been one happy focused camper for 4 years now, good luck, kimber lee
