> I have been on Trileptal for about 9 months. It was added to other meds to deal with mood swings. I have found it moderately effective. But, I have found that it tends to "flat line" my emotions. By that I mean it reduced the deep, bad moods, but also tempered or deminished any significant level of "feeling good". Istill have mood swings, just not as much energy in them.
thanks so much for responding. yeah i was afraid of s/e's like that. I am already feeling tired on Lexapro and I dont want to lose energy. do you know if this is common or maybe one of those individual things that may affect you but not me? how many pills or milligrams are you taking? he wants me to build up to like 4 150mgs. if you dont mind me asking what exactly are you diagnosed with? I have depression and anxiety.
thanks so much.
