Just shows you how different everyone is. I couldn't stand the side effects of zoloft - water retention, extreme dizzyness, wanting to eat all the time, weight gain, and then to boot it made me depressed. Also, I exercise a lot, and the sweating was really awful - beach towel type sweating - and then I'd have to drink 4 large bottles of water.

So far the Topamax hasn't been too bad autumn, maybe a word find problems here and there, but I'm on a low dose for migraines, so I don't know what it would do at a higher dose. Are all the anticonvulsants used for mood stability, like tegratol, supposed to effect cognition? I know with topamax it's drug related temporal lobe problems.
