The problem is I don't see any mania. It is all depression. Crying, can't get out of bed, anxiety because she is 20 and afraid to get her driver's license which makes her feel isolated. She takes 200mg of Lamictal; 200 mg Seroquel and 1 mg of Klonopin. No anti-depressants (I use Prozac). She has tried Prozac, Wellbutrin, Effexor, and some others. I keep hearing about a new kind of anti-depressant that is not an SSRI. Any recommendation? My daughter age 20 has been diagnosed as bi-polar, as have I. The problem is I don’t see any mania.
