> I was on it for only a couple of months along with depakote as a mood stabilizer. It's difficult to say if it caused me any cognitive problems because depakote already has that effect on me. I did lose some of the weight that was put on by zyprexa, but I also had an increase in anxiety which made me give it up rather than increase the other drugs I was on. Good luck.
I thought I had read somewhere that topomax was actually supposed to help with panic attacks. Is this not true? I was counting on this, but have not benefited from it yet. I still have that feeling of dread and panic in the grocery store and other brightly lit public places, you know the ones. (Well, some of you do, I'm sure). Cam W, you sound like you're a pharmacist or a Dr., are you? Ginny
