Nope, never been on any other other than Zoloft and Celexa and now Risperdal.
>Trileptal and the others could offer more control over your emotions w/o the weird side effects antipsychotics can have (hormonal side effects, tardive dyskinesia, etc.)
So far I don't experience any side effects from my meds. Any "side effects" I experienced or thought I experienced are gone now. It's really weird. My Mom is very sensitive to meds and I'm not sensitive at all.
I think it is good to keep my emotions under control, but it is not good to experience apathy. I don't really know whether or not the Risperdal or Celexa does anything. I just know I haven't really freaked out in about a month now and that's a really long time for me.
I see my p-doc tomorrow and it's gonna be another boring session. Nothing bad or exciting happened. Everything is just fine.
