Bi-Polar

Posted , 2 users are following.

hello all i am usually in a stable mood for a month and then i drop off and become depressed and anxious with racing thoughts for about three weeks. pure obsessive out of the OCD spectrum. i take 20 mg of abilify and 20 mg of prozac. why is this happening? the complete mood cycle happens constantly. does anyone have any thoughts about this?

thanks
