> I would imagine he uses daily.Would he tell you if you asked? (A lot of pot smokers don't do it every day; it's not an addictive drug.)
/////Hm-m-m-m - well are you sure?:) Because that *is* his response to how often he uses! Personally, I think it's been almost as a medicine for him - he doesn't get "high" and "dopey" or whatever.......I think he just feels better, in general, with it. (Also - I awakened the other night to hear a snippet on t.v. about Reboxetine - *thought* I heard that it is going to be approved and available by 2002? Anyone know? Is it made by Lilly?)
I wasn't clear here. Topamax, not Dilantin, is the one that's known for causing weight loss. Most anticonvulsants are sedating rather than activating.
////Oh, yes, well that makes sense - although I had heard that Topamax results in weight loss for some. Wonder how that works if it doesn't stimulate?
Again, thanks so much for your responses.
