I wanted to know what is the best mood stabilizer medicine for me? I am on 15 mg of Zyprexa a day and 40 mg of Celexa? What would be the ideal mood stabilizer be that I could take? Any comments would help because I am going to see the psychiatrist this Friday and any good suggestions would help.

Only you can tell which drug is right for you. I am currently on Geodon and Lamictal. I've also been on Abilify and Depakote. From my personal experience, Geodon makes me way too tired, i'm not on a high enough dose of lamictal to have any side effects yet, i didn't stay on ablify long enough and I wouldn't recommend depakote to anyone. it made me very angry and i didn't want to be around anyone. i hope this helps.
