I CHOSE CARBAMAZEPINE (TEGRETOL)
Hay all!
Saw my P.doc, and he wasn't happy that I had stopped my Lithium and was mowing the grass at 3:00am. He thinks I am very close to launching into fullblown mania, and told me that I would have to agree with another mood stabalizer, or it's time to put me in hospital (again)Am back on Olanzapine, untill the Tegretol kicks in, so am feeling very sleepy.
Does anyone have experience with Tegretol. Don't like what i've read, with depression , aggression and activation of psychosis being amongst the side-effect profile.
Feeling annoyed, as my p.doc seems to be hindering me whenver I start to feel good. Although my head was very busy and my thoughts were racing, I still felt good.
I hope that the Tegretol works, because I am afraid of coming down with a thud.
Thanx for any feedback
Your not so happy- vibed friend,
Tay
