Topamax was horrible for me. It put me in the hospital. I've never had problems like that with any medication. I am on the Trileptal now which is helping without the massive hair loss, gall bladder problems etc I had with Topamax. I am very thankful that the Lexapro works because I was in a horrible deep depression. Now that I am not depressed anymore, I'd like to actually want to participate in my life again. All SSRI's do this to me it seems. I just wish there was a decent way out of it...
Topamax did a great job of managing my moods. I maxxed out at 100mg and there was a 2 week period where everything was great and then the side effects kicked in. Hopefully you can get the mood management without the side effects.
