I probably need to go one them and was wondering if anyone can tell me what they are like? side effects etc....
 I am worried that they make you drowsy like the anti-psychotics?? I appreciate all your input

i have been on lamictal with no side effects but it only somewhat worked.
topamax works really well and i lost weight on it, no other side effects. trileptal made me really anxious and made my panic attacks come back. |

didn't do anything for me. Seroquel as my anti-psychotic works a lot better. makes me tired and a bit numb, but otherwise very good.

I take Saphris and it seems to be working okay. It does knock me out but I take it at bedtime and I'm fine by morning.
