In reply to feeling over medicated, posted by Conniesmithmooney on July 1, 2001, at 10:16:54
> I have been diagnosed as bipolar II and am currently taking neurontin, zoloft, lamictal, geodon, risperdal, topamax and zanax. I am really starting to feel that my dr is over medicating me - Is there any advice. I've thought about just stopping all the meds
I think your doctor might be pushing it a bit too far. Two anti-psychotics for bipolar II (which as far as I know is non-psychotic manic-depression) seem a bit much. Plus he has you on three different anticonvulsants which, unless you're epileptic seems like overkill. I would clear things up with him if I were you.
