I take Trileptal for my mood stabalizer for Bipolar Disorder, and my experience with it is bad, I'm still on it and hoping to get off of it soon. 1 reason why I don't like trileptal is because it feels like I am in my mixed moods a lot, where I feel very irratable, depressed and can't sleep well like getting very little to no sleep, and second reason is it gives me horrible acne breakouts.
