Depakote/Topamax, Increasing Dosage ..Scary..Help!

Posted by Lateralis on May 15, 2002, at 0:09:16

I went to my doc today because my racing thoughts havent quit she increased my 500mg of Depakote a night to 1000mg a night. Well it's my first night to take it and I can feel it setting it already. I don't know how to describe it. Part of it feels like ecstacy I feel sensations and smell things and see and smell some things which I find odd but I also am getting sad and scared at the same time.. how long are these feelings going to last? And what else do I have to look forward to going up to at this 1000mg? My hair didnt fall out at the 500mg so I dont think it should at the 1000, but I'm terrified of that too. She also informed that she's going to be taking my Topamax up to 200mg, we're doing 25mg increases each week. I'm at 100mg right now and I still have an appetite, but I haven't noticed a drastic supression. I'm looking forward to the weight loss.. when should this start to set in? She said in two weeks she'll probably be adding an anti-depressent. I appreciate any advice, comments or help. Thank you.
