I'm 44. I've been on it since I was 31. I started out at 25 mg years ago, and now I'm up to 800 mg. it's been impossible for me to get off of it due to anxiety and irritability that immediately happen when I try to decrease the dose. I hate this drug.
I have no experience with those medications but can tell you that going off of medications even weaning can cause a reaction, in my experience. I'm only commenting to give you hope that you can live with bipolar disorder un-medicated, it just takes a lot of hard work and some lifestyle changes. I have for 5 years now because I too want to be a mother. I hope it helps to know that.
