As for what you asked, Neurontin...it does nothing so it will be like you are on none...you will soon be manic and non-zombie like. Trust me!!
Seriously. Depakote made me feel as though in a trance very often. My affect was blunted and my thinking even seemed to "slowed" by having to search for common words or fom self with new concepts.
I have heard some good things about toprimax and triliptal ( used often when there are also prominent anxiety) and lamiclal ( used a bit more for those who present depressed or "mixed" often) I have been on it for about 6 months and feel terrific when it comes to a stab. of mood and have found no real side effects, but am still a neurotic at heart...good luck ~tony
oh, and the last three meds usually do not require blood work like depacote and lithium.
