I think the power that tegretol had to nock out the temporal lobes is very decietfull. Its just like the antipsychotics. After you take them you feel better because things seem so "plain and basic", that life has to be easy right ?? Wrong.
I took celexa for a year, and got stright A's, The next semester I took tegretol. I was actually feeling good cause things seemed so basic and dull, that I just assumed it was easy, I thought I understood it. I failed every course.
Have you ever heard the term "dumb drug euphoria"
Drugs that make you dumb make you happy because they make you assume everything is plain and simple (anticholinergics, amitryptaline), and drugs that make you smart make you depressed, and psychotic, because you realize that life is not as simple as you assumed.
Temporal lobe problem, is just a nice way of saying "we're going to short circut your limbic system".
