Hi ravenlunatic,

I too struggle with bulimia but have never heard of being treated with Topamax. I always thought Topamax was used for severe headaches and convulsion type stuff. I personally have not come across a prescription drug to help with my bulimia. Sorry I can’t answer your question specifically but, for whatever it’s worth there is a supplement you can buy through any health food store that might help. It’s not a miracle worker but it cut back more than half of my bulimic behavior, and within only two weeks of using it. It’s called 5-HTP. Simply described, it’s a form of amino acid that plays a big role in serotonin. If you do take this I wouldn’t mix it with any other stuff and I would definitely take it under the supervision of your doc. Best wishes with all of this. Finding the right prescription plan is always rough.

Hugs. ~ Bee
