Isn't that the strangest side effect, not being able to string two words together? You could be a Harvard graduate and suddenly you turn into a 10 year old. And a dumb 10 year old at that. Between that and the disgusting tasting beverages I think Topomax qualifies as the weirdest drug on the market. It's a weight-loss a'go-go though for most. A day in the life of a Topomax user....

> I'm on the topamax now.. Started right at 200mg, haven't lost a pound, but when I was on it before, the weight FLEW off... I think I got it wrong this time around and I was at 300-400 last time. Time for a record check.

> Funny thing, BEFORE I was taking this med, I suffered from not being able to remember the names of common household objects and never really knew what caused it, but, I could remember a face I had seen for a split second, once, drunk, blindfolded, back 20 years earlier. Go figure. I often swap my kids names around.. my father did the exact same thing. Genetics? Stupidity? I did just turn 40?...Hmmm..
>Ho I forget...this week I go to the McDo...and the funny thig is that my friend ask me what I wanted to eat, since I didnt have money...I was looking at the menu, I Was reading the words double cheeseburger, but I was unable to say it...I Was like..."I want the thing, you know with ground beef and cheese..."...He was like "What...are you crazy..."..lol Stupid...I think the word is good... Strange no? I still wonder why I ask about returning on this med. I know i'm a lot turned into my recent weight gain from my last tries of Lexapro and Clomipramine, but I can loose weight without that "stupid" med...who can be good for someone who need a good mood stabiliser for sure...but that's not for me...anyway...I just remember it after I post the other post... Sometimes I feel just like I lost my head somewhere...and I can't find it...lol
