I have bipolar II with rapid cycling and I understand about the talking too fast and inappropriate subjects that jump out of my mouth and the angry outburst and (insatiable sex drive). My ex-husband used to call it the jeckel and hyde syndrome, because the other me is so quiet and sweet,hee hee. Topomax seems to be keeping me calmer these days. I was on 200mg for a long while and then I had a rare manic phase. I usually am mostly depressed and sometimes alittle hypo but rarely manic. (It was kind of fun, but scary too) so my pdoc is increasing my topomax to 400mg. I'm a little nervous about going so high on the dose.
