[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 592590, member: 6705"] From what I know about bipolar... SSRIs are a complete no-no for most, can trigger mania. Onyxx on Zoloft and Wellbutrin... Yeah, frightening. She did quite well on risperidone, so-so on Seroquel, and pretty well on Invega. Abilify led to her cutting more and more, trying to "feel" something. It dulled [I]too[/I] much. Now, me? Zoloft was a complete waste of time, money, and drug as it had NO effect. Wellbutrin turned me into a monster. No one wanted to spend time with me - not even me. Celexa worked, though. I'm not bipolar - but I can tell you this, for me... Celexa dulls the edge of despair, but I am still able to feel joy and sadness. My creativity has dropped some, but a lot of that is due to my waking moments being taken up with Meggie... They went before I went back on Celexa! It is just possible that some tweaks need to be made. I wish I had the answer for you... Oh... And that weight gain?! Don't I know all about it. Ugh. [/QUOTE]
