Btw this is the perfect med for me, since I got on it a few years ago I actually feel completely normal for the first time ever!

Definitely suggest metabolic testing to figure out which mood stabilizer will work and which won’t BEFORE starting anything. That guessing game can be so freaking dangerous, and it’s a risk you don’t have to take.

If anyone is curious about the gene testing to show which psych meds will work best for you, you can find info on it here: https://genesight.com/for-patients/

I believe you can actually order the test straight from the website, it’s just a cheek swab and then they send it to the lab and a short time later you get your results. Quick and painless and it cuts out all of those scary adverse effects from psych meds, like feeling way more depressed
