Dear Steve,
Having been on numerous meds myself (bipolar/panic disorders), I consulted a neurologist with a list of complaints similar to yours. He ordered neuropsych testing which showed a significant decrease in my IQ and specific cognitive problems. I have been on most of the mood stabilizers, both typical and atypical antipsychotics, benzos and ssri's until my cycling worsened. I was told that depression can skew results of testing, but if you find a specific area of difficulty through the testing, than maybe it's something that can be addressed. I wish you the best of luck.
