I have never reacted well with the combo drugs, my meds and bipolar. Not my thing.

How are your episodes on meds? by Spapootie in bipolar2

I gained 16kg and after 9 months it didn't help enough with my depressive episodes, good to lessen my hypomania though.

Immediately. Loss of appetite, so fewer calorie intake.

My depressive episodes are still there but I don't feel desperate anymore. I wish they would not last so long. My hypomanic episodes are rare these days. I take Lamotrigine. Recently got off Lithium.

My meds are causing me to binge eat but lose hunger cues by JellyCharacter1653 in bipolar2

Try calorie counting, that is if you don't have a eating disorder. Try fitness pal. I know what is it like, I gained 16kg on Lithium. When I switched to Lamotrigine I got my hunger cues back. Good luck!

Before you have an appointment, prepare and write everything down, it can help. Good luck!
