medication

I have recently been dignosed with Bipolar 2 and I'm working with my doctors to find a good medication mix. I was mis-diagnosed with depression and have taken Prozac, Zoloft and Lexapro on and off for the past six years. All work for a little while or take some edge off for a period of time, but eventually quit working. I'm scared to get on harder mood controlling drugs because I don't want to lose feeling, episodes of hypomania or gain weight. Any advice from long time users?

Also, I don't like to drink, and prefer to smoke marajuana. Just wondering if anyone out there experiences episodes of hypomania with weed. Typically people who smoke pot chill out and go to sleep. I'm on the other end of the spectrum -- I'm bouncing off the walls, working on my thesis, cleaning the house and writing down all my thoughts and ideas. I love it and I feel like I can do anything.T his doesn't always occur. I might not experience mania, but feel "more clear" in my thinking -- i.e. lifts the cloud.
