Psychiatrist 's  Response
hi dear,
as you are better with twice a day medicine and you left some doses so you have such symptoms appear again so start again twice a day medicine and wait for 1 week to improve if not then consult psychiatrist.
or add a antidepressant like bupropion or mirtazepine which has less potential to convert manic features.
Thank you
