In reply to Topomax and Anxiety anyone?, posted by Aussie on February 17, 2004, at 23:22:53

Hi Aussie,

I've been reading that alot of people are experiencing anxiety as they begin Topamax...it seems to be quite stimulating at first for them. If this is happening, you should probably titrate your dosage of 25mg every TWO weeks instead of every one week and let your body adjust a little longer. This seems to lessen the side effects a bunch. I didn't have any anxiety w/Topa...I had the opposite...it knocked me out! I couldn't keep my eyes open! Anyway, that's what I would suggest. And oh yea, don't forget the deep breathing, excercise, visualization, etc. that helps relieve anxiety!!

Good luck,
Sooshi
