If you have been diagnosed with BP you should consult with you physican over the use of gabapentin.

My SIL is bipolar, had some harrowing times from taking multiple meds form different MDs.

She ended up in the hospital, we thought she was a goner, but fortunatly her husband got a doctor to sort out the prescriptions, and take her off 3/4 of them. She is doing well these days.
