Those are good questions.

I'm afraid I cannot answer with certainty.
On the one hand, it seems that my withdrawal
was so severe it almost killed me, on the
other hand, my doctor neither objected nor
approved of getting off, and to complicate
matters, i don't know what it was prescribed
for - bipolar or gad (there seems to be a
controversy on the net now about why anticonvulsants
are given to bipolars, i.e. because they
share some features of epilepsy).

But i don't rightly know. I do know that
it was impossible to get off it (though i have
heard that getting off with Valium would have
been successful).

Nor do i know what I would have been like, had
i gotten off it; if it was GAD it was prescribed
for (which i recall it was) then it should not
have made a difference; if it was for bipolar
(epileptoid status) then i need it.
