Interesting you mention that. No one ever told me that anti seizure meds can lessen antipsychotics.
I used to take 40mg of Geodon, but it wasn't enough, so Trileptal was added. Between the two, my eyesight was awful! I could barely read anything.
As an experiment, I tried 80mg of Geodon last night. Haven't used any Trileptal in several days. So far today has been great. Even my vision is still good. No hypomania, irritability or depression.
Tonight I'm going to see if I can get by on just 60mg. I don't know if it will work, but I'll know pretty early in the morning. If I wake up hyper, I'll know I need the higher dose.
I do worry about long term side effects of AAPs, but being a nice person is very important for my loved ones.
