that seems to be the new theme of struggle lately for me. Its very discouraging. I dont know if its the combo of meds with trileptal, but it really seems like if I add a med to trileptal I get anxiety. Ive taken pristiq before and that helped anxiety, now if I take it with trileptal Im anxious and I cant make eye contact at all. I dont really understand. Im taking strattera with it and now I still cant make eye contact very well. Its really weird. Its realyl annoying.
I do see a theme with being obsessed with one single side effect all the time. I dont know whats happening.
Overall im doing good. I just cant seem to grasp why the hell this happening. Well i just needed to vent some seriousness in my life. Ill check in lata.

This may sound silly is there something you're hiding, shy, just anxious, as those are the only reasons I can think of as I like to make eye contact to see what a person really feels. Just my take. Love Phillipa

It's so confusing when you are on multiple meds...
Sounds like you would really like to feel like making eye contact and that you have been able to make eye contact in the past. Has anything besides med changes happened that has made you feel more anxious and withdrawn?Sounds like a hard place to be.

like why would eye contact become so unnatural all the sudden. really wierd. I mean i can talk and stuff but when i look people in the eye, its just not flowing. Somethings not right. I just focus and look at one of their eyes and then look down or away. I usually am not aware of eye contact
maybe some interaction with trileptal. I just dont get it.... you know. when will i ever get this right?
