    Hi lander23

    I was struck by one thing that you wrote:

    "Ive suffered from **depression**, anxiety, **bipolar** for a few years now. "

    Depression and bipolar are very different - typically their treatment/management needs different approaches, including different meds.

    I suggest that you ask your GP to give you a referral to a psychiatrist - s/he will be able to do a proper assessment of you and will be able to suggest appropriate treatment - it will be different depending on whether your Dx is bipolar or depression.
