"I'd give 10 stars, but after 5 years on this med, I feel as if I'm becoming dependent and immune at the same time. I take 400 mg daily, and if I miss a dose by 1 hour, I get a horrible headache. Meanwhile, for the past year, I feel as if I need to bump up the doses. My psychiatrist said that 400 mg is a very high dose, and she's not comfortable exceeding. I take the dissolving tablets, which I found is a slow release, and I'm able to get through my day more easily. Also, because this is a brand name, it is very hard to find it in stock! I definitely would recommend this drug, after trying numerous, this was the one that controlled my mood swings without side effects."

"I suffered with mental health issues for many years. I refused to take antidepressants until I met with a mental health doctor. I got diagnosed with bipolar type 2. Since taking this medication, my life has changed. I can work full-time and have had no suicidal thoughts and hardly get tearful. But I have experienced memory loss, short-term thoughts, a bit more forgetful."
