let me try neurontin? Or Anti-anxiety meds? I'm not sure if he specializes in BP, but he's convinced that's what I have. I probably do, but I could also have JUST anxiety issues, right? He is a child/adolescent pdoc...if that means anything. It's just that I've gained 40 freakin lbs from paxil (which I'm getting off of; is it true it'll be over a year before I lose the weight??) and the depakote makes me about as sharp as a wooden spoon. He's insistant that neurontin will do nothing for me, and I'm afraid to ask for any changes to my regime (he's pretty insistant/confident he's right). I feel guilty though, like somehow I am making myself not get better. I don't really know what I'm trying to say; these meds are only working to a small extent, and the side effects suck and I don't know what my pdoc's thinking really.
