Lovaza for bipolar:

Rilutek, Mirapex and RU-486 for depression (scroll down to the bottom of the page):
http://www.pendulum.org/meds.html
All of these are FDA approved medications that mood disorders specialists are understanding further for treatment of depression and bipolar and its good to have an understanding of where future research might lead with medications that are already FDA approved for other usages and in this case might be used by a mood disorders specialist if known treatments have failed.

You have to be the Kindess Soul I have ever met.( and by far the smartest )LOL I have what I guess are schizoid moments, If there is such a thing. I have been stable (for me) since we raised my seroquil and spaced my dosing. 50mg.2x daily 150mg.@ bedtime along with kolopin 05mgs.x3daily. During the spring I can get away with less kolopin but now that the weather is changing soooo is my mood. I should stick to doc. orders.

No. Its okay. People are not just a set of neurochemical transmisisons of course and we all have own lives and coping strategies, set backs and emotions, myself included. But there are some things that current medications doesn't treat quite as well as it should so that''s why research continues. I actually only invited people to this community who had shown an interest in new treatments which were a few. After that I put it on my personal page.
You could repost your original question on the bipolar forum if you want but I can't move it. As for the feelings you are having think if there is anything going on in your life that would stress you out or trigger them. Regardless speak to your psychiatrist about that and as to your physical symptoms you described speak to your psychiatrist to make sure they are not a medication side effect (which is doubtful) and your doctor as well as to see what's going on so it can be diagnosed and treated.
