Thanks @Blue_Bird. I only took I think 150mg this morning and take 450mg tonight I believe I'm starting off at.

Has anyone here ever tried carbamazepine/Tegretol? It's basically old school hardcore oxcarbazepine. It's on my allergy list, but I'm not sure it should be. She brought it up first yesterday. I don't know if it's worth a retry if the Trileptal doesn't work out.

The story:
I was on just an antipsychotic, but still psychotic, and carbamazepine was added. I then blacked out for three days and woke up in the ER covered in bruises (still don't know what happened). My theory is the antipsychotic was kind of effective but because Tegretol lowers the blood levels of APs it sent me into such a bad state I completely dissociated during that time before it could even have any therapeutic value. They stopped it and reintroduced it while inpatient and I had an insanely itchy foot (I don't really remember it too well, and I was super med resistant at the time so it might have been "it's December and I'm in a dry-*** hospital, of course I'm gonna be itchy," situation that I blamed on the med so I wouldn't have to take it because I did that a lot in my first few years of treatment).
