I was taking Lithium for a short time. Horrible drug. My skin became dry, blotchy and itchy, constant thirst, my anxiety worsened, and the tremor in my hands became so bad I couldn’t function at all.

Mt Pdoc took me off Lithium when changing my medication from Abilify to Rexulti.

Topamax and Lamictal

Topamax or as most people call it Stupamax because your IQ drops when you take it. I take 200 mg twice a day, I’m really dumb. Works great. I can’t stand any other. I’ve done lithium, and lamictal.

I take Latuda. 120 mg

I take 300mg of lamictal it’s been a real life saver

I take Lamotrigine as an anti-seizure, but apparently it is also a mood stabilizer. The nice thing about it, is that it’s cheap. I’ve got to pay my own way on drugs, so I have to pay careful

I only use Abilify which also has mood stabalising benefits

16

i’m on 750mg of depakote nightly.

I take 200 mg of Topamax everyday for migraines but I suppose it acts as a mood stabilizer as well, idk. My IQ didn’t drop after taking it, although I do have mild cognitive impairment. My former pdoc told me the MCI was from many years of sza psychosis.

I don’t take any officially designated mood stabilizers, but Geodon and Seroquel keep my mood stable.

I take 250mg of Lamictal along with my AP. It’s been one of the best additions to my medications.
