I don't think there are any (good stories)

Quite frankly, I don't think there are any posts on Babble detailing any good, mid- or long-term experiences with Topamax as a mood stabilizer or antidepressant on its own merit (although JohnX2 found antidepressant qualities when taken with Lamictal, as I recall.) It's gotten lots of press for weight loss ~ but that's a different issue.

I started it last night. We'll see, I guess ~ but I'm not very optimistic. Compared with Lamictal, I'd say Topamax gets rather bad press here.

Maybe I should take both of them ~ maybe the Topamax could change the rapid-fire weight gain from the Lamictal, if they were taken together (I've already started to loose that six pounds.)
