Hi Mitch.It comes as exciting news to me that you experienced an antidepressant effect to Gabitril.
Of course, I've got a bunch of questions for you, but I'll try to limit them.
1. Are you bipolar I or bipolar II?
2. Is your depression chronic, severe, or treatment resistant?
3. How often have you been manic?
3. Which antidepressants have you responded well to in the past?
4. Did the antidepressant effect disappear at higher dosages?
5. Why did you discontinue Gabitril?
I guess I didn't do a very good job at limiting them. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks much.
