I am very interested in knowing about any and all research on BiPolar 1. My son is 30 and in crisis about every 6 months. He is very compliant with his meds. Please advise if you have a current study in which he could participate from Colorado. Thank you so much

hi-- i am a health professional who is bi-polar. i am on lithium, seroquel, and take zyprexa for short periods prn for hypomania. i am very interested in participating in one or more of the studies you are introducing. please phone me at 218-525-8415, or email me. i look forward to hearing from/getting an email from you. I've suffered from b/p for over 30 years, and my father is also bipolar (age 80). I've been on antidepressants (ALL) types until the past two years, and have done better, I think, without them. I have quite detailed records and tracking, which helps me to keep things in perspective. sorry this is long--i'm a bit revved up. deb

I have a 20 year old son that has been experiencing what we can best describe as Bipolar II disorder. He has tried and been very compliant many differing meds, with Zyprexa being a pretty good constant and then a variety of anti-depressents that do not seem to work. He is prone to extended severe depressive states and has not found a med that can hold his mood up for any extended period (beyond a couple of days recently). He has tried several episodes of ECT with no significant improvement. If there are any new studines or treatments in the Missouri area, we would love to hear about them.

I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder about a year and a half ago. I am on lithium, trazadone and other meds for sleep and I tke them regularly but still have episodes and trouble sleeping. Please let me know if you have any studies in or around Columbus, Ohio. Betty
