I take both trileptal and lamictal and with doc's oversight we are backing down from 1800 trileptal to 1500 trileptal. Who here has backed off of trileptal and what side effects have you experienced? Last night was the first time I've backed down and I feel a little whacky this morning, but it's not too bad. Did you experience more clarity? A lessening of the memory problems? I'm hopeing that will be the case. The one thing that has been the most helpful to me is keeping a mood Chart and I recommend that every person on this board, all the boards for that matter keep one.
The mood chart allowed me to see exactly how I was doing, at what time, and exactly what was going on in my life that prompted swings. That has enabled me to have more psychological control of my own moods, which is satisfying to my Pdoc enough to come down on the Trileptal with time.
