If it seems out of the blue, then it may be time for a med adjustment. Only you would have an answer to that, but one can affect the other. I hope you and your pdoc are able to figure it out.

I'm on trileptal too. I'm on 900 mgs and I too just started seeing a new psych nurse. And she is taking me off the 2 mgs of lorazepam I take at night. It sucks but I'm gonna do it and not fight with her about it. It sucks though...I'm going to talk to her about raising my tripetal bc I'm going to be coming off zyprexa too.
But if you've recently been triggered it may not be a med issue. If nothing has changed it probably is a med issue. And gina I love, love, love that staind song!
