"i&#039;ve run the gamut of bi polar meds...you name it i&#039;ve probably tried it. well this med has been a difference maker. no side effects that i can recognize, better mood, more talkative, less depressed and i also have ocd, it has helped that in a big way. i feel kinda free! its coupled with zoloft and seroquel and i think i&#039;ve found my niche!"
