How do you personally feel if your medicine is working? I was diagnosed with bipolar 2 back in January. She started me off on lamictal, which made me suicidal and then she put me on seroquel. Now the seroquel makes me feel more neutral, but my anxiety is off the charts. Cant take my hydroxyzine because it puts me to sleep. People around me say it seems to be working, but i cant tell for sure internally if it is. 

How do you tell? 

Also, for anyone out there that has bipolar 2 and ptsd, how the fuck do you handle THAT? Cos im struggling over here, man.
