bipolar disorde
"My doctor prescribed it off label two months ago for my treatment-resistant unipolar depression. I noticed a marked increase in energy level and decrease in suicide ideation within a week of starting, and I'm fairly sure it isn't a placebo effect. Side effects are minimal compared to the many SSRIs and SNRIs I've been on previously (among other things, no weight gain).

So far, so good, but because it's off label it isn't covered under my insurance plan. We're hoping that changes before my doctor runs out of samples."
