> to all those who are on topimax or have tried it: how has it affected your cognative ability?i heard it really distrupts and slows down your thinking...and also...does it help or worsen anxiety and insomnia?
It affects my spelling, my ability to recall names. It affects your trend of thought... like what was I talking about??? When I first started taking it, it did give me a strange sort of waking sleep. You knew you slept but you didn't feel rested. It's not sedating but at higher dosages it does work on anxiety. I don't know quite how to put that... see that's the problem with the topamax.. finding the words. You never know quite how to put things. But aside from that, I am losing some weight and I don't feel racey and anxious. Aside from not finding the right words and having a lot of "things" I think it works well.
