So i 'm looking at options for a mood stabilizer. my ablilify has turned me into a zombie and i stopped taking it. i have been bedridden for the most part since Sunday morning. same last Wednesday.

So I see Topamax looks scary. see here:

Ocular

Common (1% to 10%): Vision blurred, diplopia, visual disturbance

Way too much eye symptoms to worry about. yuck. blindness and glaucoma etc. no way.
Depakote doesn't look too bad.

Ocular

Very common (10% or more): Amblyopia/blurred vision, diplopia
Common (1% to 10%): Abnormal vision, conjunctivitis, diplopia, dry eyes, eye pain[Ref]

Any psych meds you know about that is awful or good? The tegrat I used to be on made me think i had something wrong with my stomach so many times. i had bad stomach problems. i even had a colonoscopy done. when i went off of it i hardly had issues since.
