Just joined. I am bipolar - diagnosed as of about a month ago. Been on Depakote since. Over the excessive sleepiness now. Moods are evened out more. I stop myself from buying impulsively now. (Usually.) Seeing a psychiatrist in a couple weeks. I think I've had this for years but they finally diagnosed it when upping my Celexa made me VERY manic.

Welcome Nathan!
Yes antidepressants for an undiagnosed bipolar person can be hello!
Glad that you have gotten meds to help.
and hopefully you have a good support system to help you cope.
Being able to stop the spending is really a good sign!
keep posting!

Thanks. :)

I posted a reply in the thread of the person asking about what BP is like "I don't know a lot about bipolar"- more details to my story than this.

Welcome Nathan :)
