"this medicine helped my daughter like no other we have tried, and we&#039;ve tried *a lot* over the past 8 years.  she has bipolar ii and the depression with that has been very treatment resistant.  this is the first medicine i&#039;ve seen her on where she is herself.  the others have either done nothing, induced mania, or made her into a non-feeling zombie.  the only downside is the weight gain.  i just hope it continues to work over more time."
