Emotional Trileptal...

Posted by TrishP on May 22, 2005, at 8:07:24

I have been taking 600mg of Trileptal. I had to go on strong birth control pills - but that still hasn't stopped the break through bleeding. It feels like I have a period all the time. I'm really sick of it and am tapering off Trileptal, which is makig me very emotional and weepy.

The Wellbutrin 150 XL is a great anitdepressant, but it agitates me and makes me a little mean. I hate the flat feeling from SSRIs.

Anyone has success with anxiety and a little depression with Effexor XL and Buspar?

I could take 75mg of Effexor XL and Klonipin - but the docs don't like prescriving Klonopin. The klonopin seems to work pretty good.

Any ideas?

Hi Trish.

Why were you prescribed Trileptal?

Pdoc thinks I should take a mood stabilizer if I take an antidepressant.
