Hi, I have been diagnosed with BP II for about a year and a half. I have been stable for about six months now, taking 200mg of Lamictal, 500mg of Seroquel, and 100mg of Prozac. In the last week, I have been experiencing alternating bouts of horrible depression and dysphoric mania. There was no obvious trigger for this to happen..it totally happened out of the blue. Is this normal? What can I do to prevent this from happening again?
Thanks so much for your time!
Dane =)
