I just started on 50mg of Topamax today. I'm taking it for residual ultradian (several times a day) bipolar cycling. I read a study that Topamax should help OCD and intrusive thoughts (which I have problems with). The study said that high glutamate levels is linked to OCD.
Anyway, with Topamax, I have no cognitive problems so far. I'm starting to notice a little reduction in appetite, and sodas taste somewhat flat. No other side effects, though. I seem to feel a little calmer so far. I think this GABA stuff will complement the Topamax pretty well since Topamax also hits GABA pretty hard from what I've read here.
> This is kind of off topic, although I am going to be trying Taurine in the next couple of days and what you posted about it seems hopeful...But how is the Topamax working for you? I seem to have cognitive problems from Trileptal (or maybe Klonopin) and I'm not sure it's working so great so I'm thinking about trying another MS. Thanks,
