Trileptal is helping with depression but seems to be inducing hypomania. The same thing happened to me with lamictal.
I believe that my doctor thinks that it will go away once I reach higher doses.
I just raised it to 1200 mgs today. I've taken it before, and I believe that I need at least 1500 for some stablization.
I see the doc on mon, and i know he'll want me to take an antipsychotic for the severe racing thoughts. But I don't tolerate them well, they make me weird (all of my thoughts become internal, and i can't focus on the external world around me).
Anyway, hope this goes away at 1200 or 1500.
Any other suggestions I appreciate it.
Regards,
Brian
