I am currently taking 100 mg Topamax (upped from 25mg 2x day) for bi-polar for mood stabalization (I am ALWAYS irritated & agitated) and other than causing sleepiness and weightloss, it has done NOTHING for me mentally. I finally see the doc again Friday so I am asking for something else. Have been on Paxil 40 mg in past and weaned off it violently, though it worked a bit, but not great (the only thing that really worked was Xanax, but can't go back there for addictive reasons). Will Depakote or something else be better, or possibly just more Topamax? I had gastric bypass surgery a couple of months back so I gotta be careful.
