if u are truely bipolar giving u antidepressants tends to make u go the other way ie manic!.!.so we use mood stablisers like depakote or valproate or epilim or even some of the antipsychotics like seroquel or olanzapine as they work better for people with bipolarWww@Answer-Health@Com

There is not a lot of difference between the current anti-Ds and with a history of a paradoxical effect it it isn't wise to try then again!. bi polar is difficult to treat, you really need to trust that your doctor is making clear headed decisions and that some of your perceptions and responses are driven by an altered mental state, Take it easy, good wishes,Www@Answer-Health@Com

I don't know about any of the drugs you've mentioned so I cant comment on that, only, trust your doc's judgment!. Im sure they have been practicing for a long time so they know what they are on about!.

As for getting depressed and suicidal, has your doc not referred you to a councilor, or put you in touch with support groups!?!?!? If not, maybe you should mention this as I feel this could help you a great deal!. A problem shared, is a problem halved x xWww@Answer-Health@Com
