i just took my first dose of 25 mg of topamax. after 5 days i am to increase to 50mg. years ago i took it but don't remember why i dropped it. i didn't have any side effects.
IT seems like I am the only one who is posting about bipolar.

Topiramate may be useful for people who have bipolar mood disorders that other mood stabilizers have been unable to control. It can relieve symptoms and make taking antidepressants possible for people who were unable to take them before without experiencing mania or a mixed state.Jan 29, 2016
