Hello Cole Morgan,

 

I cannot recommend any drugs.  Please ask your psychiatrist.  Some of the atypicals used to treat schizophrenia such as Abilify and maybe Geodon are used for symptoms of bi-polar as well. 

 

You will have to consult with your psychiatrist about what kinds of drugs would best control your symptoms.  Sometimes it takes trial-and-error to find the right drug.  We also have a bipolar web site where you might want to talk about this.

 

Regards,

Christina
