[QUOTE="confuzzled, post: 589202, member: 8831"] mine couldn't take ssri's or stimulates without an actual mood stabilizer on board first--she had a slightly manic reaction to Zoloft and a horrific reaction to concerta when we tried each alone. once we go the MS in place (lamictal, in our case) we were able to treat the remaining symptoms with the appropriate medications, no problem. mine will actually tell you that focalin changed her life. protocol for treating any kind of mood disorder is to first use a mood stabilizer, then deal with what is left over. we do bloodwork once or twice a year--nothing special. if that's the route they end up taking, be sure to follow the doctors instructions to a T--many of them need to be titrated slowly and shouldn't just be stopped. and be sure to ask if you need to wean down on the Zoloft.....
