I am bipolar I, but mostly suffer with depressive episodes. I have had actual manic episodes previously so I am classified bipolar I if that makes sense. Anyway, I also have problems with severe anxiety as well (odd how similar people can be). I recently started taking Topamax because after taking Lithium for the second time the side effects were too much for me to handle. I am happy to say at this point I am in a FANTASTIC mood!!!! I have been taking it for over 3 months and the side effects are minimal. I also take Neurontin for anxiety. Good luck! Karen
