They took me off the Trileptal without weaning me off it in the hospital and I went MANIC and PSYCHOTIC. Not just hypomanic. But if I wean myself over a period of 5 five weeks, I think I will be okay.
I just feel like we are searching for answer when one already exists. The Parnate worked. It's the only med that has ever gotten rid of my depression completely.
I don't know, it seems like the obvious solution to me ...
