Thanks so much for your post. If I could double thank you I would. I'm off the topomax completely now, was only on a low dose anyway. I did some research last night on the withdrawal side effects of effexor xr and it's scary. Holy cow I never knew so much could happen from being on one drug, let alone that and the abilify. I'm so scared that I'm going to start hallucinating again. Had a weird dream last night where I was in a psychward and restrained and when I woke up i was still in the dream, I couldn't move as if i had restraints on.
sigh, the call to the doc is a must. i know, gotta take care of myself good so i can keep on working and plus school starts on wednesday.
