> I just got off the phone with my PDOC who is working hard with me trying to find a good med combo for my Bipolar II (we think) that doesn't include the blunting effects I'm getting from Zyprexa (yes I am a calm individual but I'm numb to emotion and vigour...I used to be such a creative person, I miss writing songs, novels, painting, and just getting up in the morning ready to live life to it's fullest). She said she would like to try Tompamax. I am busy doing research on it, thought I'd start here for some personal stories on how it worked, didn't work for you.

> Please include your diagnosis, dosage, length of time using it, etc. TIA!Here's the ultimate list of just that information: http://www.askapatient.com/viewrating.asp?drug=20505&name=TOPAMAX
Note, the postings are ranked from best (5, at the top) to worst (1, at the bottom), but even people who give it a 5 often have the same side effects as those who give it the thumbs down.
I called the stuff Stupimax, but your mileage or brain may vary.
