I am Bipolar with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Agoraphobia with Panic Disorder and I have Endometriosis?

I also have multiple fractures and Head Trauma from Domestic Abuse. I am out of that situation now and forever. I currently take Zoloft, Klonopin, Nuerontin and Lortab.
My problem is I have been experiencing extreme anger episodes. I've also become cruel and sometimes mean to my Mom and Grandma. My shrink doesn't seem to understand how much I'm going through becuase I appear to be....I don;t know...how can you really know someone unless you actually see them in daily life?
Can anyone suggest a good medication combo for me?
I want to be normal.
I think the anger is part of the PTSD. I was in a Domestic violence situation for 3 years. I was beat constanly. I was so bruised and sore sometimes I couldnt leave the bedroom. It was extreme trauma. What is the best drug for that? Nobody can stand being around me. Any suggestions?

Thank you so much to all of you who answered in a kind manner. I didn't mean to suggest that I would self medicate. I was just wondering what medications I might disuss with my doctor or new doc. To imply that I would DO what someone tells me to do from yahoo answers is an insult and you hurt my feelings. I appreciate so very much everyone who answered honestly and offered some solutions instead of making me feel stupid for asking the question. Again, you who answered me in such a kind hearted way help me make it from day to day and help me explore possible treatments, of course, with a Doctor.

Okay, listen up ... Neuotin is useless. It has been proven to be ineffective in bipolar disorder. I believe there is a class action suit against the company.

You need a proper mood stabilizer. The type you should use would depend on the preponderance of symptoms. For example, are you more depressive or manic? Some are better for each instance.

I am glad you're out of your horrible situation. Good for you!

Anger can also be caused by mania. You won't know until you're on a proper mood stabilizer. PTSD doesn't usually cause anger - moreso anxiety and panic attacks.

Zoloft and Klonopin are good meds. I'd say stick with them. But again, I must emphasize you need a good mood stabilizer. And nix Topamax too - that stinks.

Tell your doctor all you have written here. In fact, print it out and hand it to him/her.

There are other categories of meds that can help you too.

Talk to your doc. Don't suffer needlessly any longer. Be assertive. And don't give up hope. You can be relaxed and helped.

a chill pill

WEED!!!!

Wow, this is not the place to be asking that. You need to ask a licensed mental health professional.

There's a future for you in the Democratic party, very possibly as a candidate for a high office.

go to a docter and tell them this and maybe they can help you...hope this helps!

Wow, um... it's really hard to say when you're not a doctor, but sounds like you need to get evaluated and have something prescribed that suits your personality and needs....

Prozac
or ask for this pill... i forgot its name
but i heard its really powerful and even wen you feel like crying, you just dont coz the pill stops you from crying and then you just stop caring

I'm extremely sorry and empathetic for your situation, and I want to say you're very lucky and smart to have gotten out of that situation.

Ask your DOCTOR about all this stuff though. Yahoo answers is no place for perscription drug advice. Tell your doctor about the anger episodes and ask if he/she has any suggestions.

I take plenty of medications myself, and I often have anger episodes when I first start a new one.. it's your body reacting to the meds. Talk to the doc.

the best drug is finding a power greater than yourself.like god,buddah,virgin mary,the sun the moon....find something positive to believe in and hold your head high! love&light to you!! what i am trying to say is that eh best drug is love&kindness.go out and help someone today,even a smile will do. share your story when its appropriate.you will be able to help someone else get thru it too.be a power of example.you have been to hell and made it back!! :) you have more knowledge and wisdom than you could ever find in any book...its called experience

So with all those things going on in your life and all those chemicals floating around in your brain, you've come to YahooAnswers for a resololution...
Trust me...those things aren't your biggest problem...go to your doctor!

You need to speak to a different psychiatrist. Different medications are advisable for different people, and nobody here is going to be qualified to recommend a medication combo for you...and anyone who IS a doctor wouldn't recommend it without much more information about you.

there is no medication that would relieve you of your problem.my only advise 4 u is to pray to God to heal u and take away the affliction the devil have deposited in u.
prayer works and it always works 4 me.

You need to find a really good dr to talk this over with. I have a friend that is bipolar and she takes lithium. It works wonders for her. I am not sure about a combo though. Maybe some type of therapy would be more helpful to you, that way you don't have to be on all of that medication forever.

hi i'm hope i suggest yoga or just sit and listen to your favorite tunes put your stress behind you spend time with a loved one jogging or just going to a fav restaurant.write songs,poetry is a great way to relax or just chill at the beach.if u want to learn about medicine go to your doctor to help.please drugs are not the answer be safe xoxoxo

Hello Sarah, It's a shame that you experienced this kind of torture and it is still eating at you. Try very hard to put it behind you and look at the present and forward as your life is so much better. Your combinations of medicine may be affecting your temperament. Don't stop taking anything without the advise of your doctor, but discuss with him or her if this can be causing the angry episodes. You have a right to ask for a second opinion regarding your meds. You also have a right to talk to another doctor if you don't feel comfortable with this one. Good luck to you and heal.

Why wouldn't you be angry? Duh! Your repressed anger is popping up all over the place and you are taking it out on people who are "safe."

Keep talking to your shrink. Or get a new one. The best types of shrinks are people who have experienced the same thing as you. If you need a shrink because you were raped, go to a shrink who's been raped. If you need a shrink because your were abused (by whoever) go to a shrink with similar experience. Why would someone who has a serious drug addiction go to a shrink who grew up with a silver spoon up her @ss? Doesn't make sense.

I also suggest joining a support group, such as codependent anonymous. They can help you learn to find your sense of self.

They may should change some of your medications, like the Zoloft. Do you feel it does any good. I have taken all these too. Klonopin I am own know for anxiety and have been before for seizures, Neurotin is for seizure too and made me crazy while I was on it, I have taken Loritab and Zoloft when my husband passed away.
You have been through bad traumas and problems. The PTSD is a hard one to control from what I have read. Which one is for that?===

I'm not a medical professional, however you have a lot of traumatic situations to occur in your life along with other medical concerns. I think you would need to consult with a team of doctors to evaluate your mental disorders and physical disorders to determine what medications will work for you since you are taking multiple medications together. Sometimes taking multiple medication can produce different side effects on a period of time and need to be monitored regularly. I think your shrink and your other medical doctors need to group together to evaluate your medical conditions and the common approach for determining what medications you require and what the current effect of the medicines you are currently taking. The best of luck to you.

1. Get a new doc to help with the mental health issues.

2. Look into group therapy and/or a support group, it might help.

3. Get an OB who specializes in endometriosis treatment, if you are in a lot of pain that might be contributing to your anger issues.

DONT LISTEN TO THE PEOPLE WHO ARE SUGGESTING BAD DRUGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...

I think the anger also comes with the bipolar. I've had white rage since I was little kid...when I get mad, I don't feel anything and don't care until after the rage goes away. Anything set it off too... a piece of hair that refused to stay flat in a ponytail set me off to where I would rip out my hair and trash the bathroom. When I was on zoloft, the anger got worst. I was started on wellbutrin xr and prozac and the anger has gotten better..the last time I went into a blinding rage was two years ago when my vacuum cleaner insisted on sucking up a corner of the rug in front of the door.

ugh, I can't stand to be around you even in cyberspace.

thats a really sad story if it is true, im gonna pretend its not and say something really insensitive anyway so my drug suggestion for you is crystal meth

i have a suggestion. Stop being so dependant on drugs. Just stop all of them and you will feel weak for about 2 weeks then it will all go away and be normal. Just trust me and be strong. You can do it! have faith in yourself.

good luck!!
