HI Kristi:
Thanks for that information. That sounds a lot like me. You are right about the part about making better decisions, etc. now that you are on the meds. For the first time in my adult life, I'm actually able to make decisions and count on feeling the same way the next day and the next. Before, I could never make up my mind because I never knew what I would feel on any given day. It trashed my relationships and any stability I could have had. Also, I don't miss that chronic chest-clutching anxiety either. There is a tradeoff for everything, I suppose. I also don't drink anymore (except on special occasions, whereas I used to drink daily) and I don't go off on crazy schemes or exploits like I used to. I feel so TAME now, though! Haha. Anyway, I am learning to be a bit more disciplined and trying to get a routine going. That part is hard! My husband is thinking of trying Trileptal also but I wanted to know if others had the same reactions to it as I do.
Thanks again for your input,
caile~
