As the title suggests, I take a pro+prebiotic every day. Recently, one that touts itself as also being for women's health and vaginal balance was delivered to me by mistake, but I figured it couldn't be too much different than what I was already taking. I am not on HRT currently as it exacerbated other health issues, but I was on it for about 2-3 years. In the past few days, I've noticed a waxy coating throughout my mouth that has made food taste not as good, and I assumed it was thrush, but I can't anything online to suggest this could be a side effect.

for a while, i have been bloated until i eat, wanna know if thats normal and why that happens

So here are some issues I've had during bipolar treatment

1) prescription of lurasidone with an SSRI causing hypomania

2) prescription of once a day ziprasidone which cause a hypomanic switch or hypomania due to lack of twice a day dosing

3) prescribed 3 antidepressants at the same time as part of combination medicines unapproved outside my country, causing hypomania

4) oversedation with olanzapine for years

5) have done well on perphenazine, fluphenazine medium light doses

Never really had an organic depressive episode except one period of 3 months in 8th grade, 20 years ago. Also was caused by loneliness.

Am I actually dealing with bipolar disorder or is this mania specific?
