Since I've started the med, I go from hypomanic in the morning, depressed from noon to 6pm, then feel normal the rest of the night.
I'm only staying on it because of the feeling normal part. During the day, I pray that it will be 6pm faster.
I hope that this will go away with higher doses.
Lamictal was sort of the same, it actually induced severe anxiety, hypomania, and mixed mood episodes.
depakote works, but my cognitive functioning goes out the window, and i become zombified.
Any advice is appreciated.
My doc says trileptal can be taken once daily, but all the literature I read says twice daily.
Regards,
Brian
