Topamax: Addictive?

Posted by Fairyone on June 19, 2003, at 14:54:36

Hey guys. I just wanted to check on this. I am on 100mg of Topamax, (which I take 1 only at night) and when I don't take it for 2 nights I start to really feel it.

I get very, very dizzy and lightheaded. I also get fairly naceaus. Anyway, it's like the world is spinnig and I can't snap out of it.

The longest I have not taken it was for 3 nights, and the next morning, I could barely even get up. It was a very scary feeling, like my eyes were open but the rest of me was totally dead.

I just wondered if anyone else has been through this. That's why under subject I put Topamax: Addictive, because I'm starting to wonder.

I take 100mg of Topomax in the morning and another 100 at night. I've been on it for over a year. I've missed a few days days before and the only thing I noticed was that I started getting edgier and that was it.
