Does anyone else find they get really angry on this medication - or bipolar episodes?

    HI I have found that my temper is shorter than usual, certain things the kids do I just cant stand, if they are bickering between themselves I end up shouting. I wouldnt go as far as to say its bipolar, although I can cry at the drop of the hat. I cry at literally anything. sorry if thats not much help but its how I have reacted to these tablets

      Thanks Wendie.  By bipolar, I meant episodes of feeling really happy with the world, then just one small thing can trigger a mood change, and then everything makes me niggly and angry.

    Hi, unfortunatly i am yet to reach the stage of "feeling really happy" about anything just yet. But i am improving, so its been tough, but i stuck with it, and just like everyone else says its best to stick it out. I am hopeing that the next two weeks will really improve further for me, hope it does for you too!
