Hello Ed...good to see you.After reading loads of others experiences I'm going to continue ( Neurontin helps a little ) until I reach the theraputic dosage -100mg.
Usually this weird anxiety goes away after about two weeks or more but comes back when the dose is increased again...but for some the anxiety stays, hopefully I'm not the latter.
I have to give it a shot.
I just suggested it to my doc because every anti depressant I throw at carbamazapine is useless.
Hopefully Topamax will help with dysphoric mania...and be less depressive.
Just wish he'd prescribe Klonopin..I'm reducing the carbamazipine as well as increasing the Topamax..It's hard to keep myself together.
Oh well...Take good care of yourself Ed x
