I don't have any answers.
I am not obsessed with bipolar.
During treatment last year for bipolar(six months prior to the cluster episode), the whole cluster cycle changed. They can both be considered seasonal afflictions. Both my doctors think there is a link between the two.
After 20 years with nothing but the same old shit. Last year I saw a significant difference. Something that didn't ruin my life for six weeks. A change that kept me from pounding my head and wishing I was dead. It was so significant, that I didn't even know when the cycle ended, just that it was gone.
This year it is different again, as are my depakote levels.
I have tried all the remedies and NOTHING has changed it like this.
I put the post for answers. So forget the bipolar part.
Here are the questions I have.
1) Have you used Depakote?
2) How much did you use?
3) What was your 12 hour level?
4) Did it help?
5) Did the cycle change?
I can think of many other questions, but please everybody answer these.
