How many mg's are you on, and what are you taking it for?
I took it for a few weeks; it made me sleepy and a few times it made my brain feel really nice.. like my brain was soaking in a warm bath (yeah, I know sounds weird).
I know on high dosage (over 1000mg's) some people experience weight gain, increased appetite, and hair loss.
Doesn't mean it will happen to you though.
I just decided that I could be fat... or I could be bald.. but I COULD NOT be fat AND bald.
Therefore a switch to Lamictal for me which I have been too scared to take but that's a whole other post up there somewhere. LOL
