If I am Bipolar and I take medicine that doesnt work?

Okay I was told by a shrink that i have bipolar disorder. They put me on wellbutrin, it gave em terrible migranes. Straight off of wellbutrin onto lexapro, that gave insomnia. They will not prescribe me anything else, is it really possible to control the issues in my head without medication?

For those of you who have already had anwers here are a couple things to remember... i have given each of these meds four months apeice, i do not have bipolar depression, i have bipolar disorder and borderline schytsophrenia(or however you spell it). My case is not a mild or servere case, it is what they call a moderate case. And i thank all of you for your advice i just figured i would elaborate a little bit more on the situation to make for a more clear picture in your heads.

first if you are bipolar why only an antidepressant, they should never give a bipolar person an antidepressant on its own as it has been know to cause mania, you should always be put on a mood stabilizer first and then an antidepressant or both at the same time. second 2 meds is nothing compared to the list of meds I have tried so why are they giving up so quick. you can have therapy and DBT (Dialectical behavioral therapy) is now being used a lot more for bipolar it was originally for the treatment of borderline personality disorder but has shown great promise for the use in treating bipolar disorder.
