> This is my first time here. I found this site today and read pages of posts from years ago that are so validating to how I'm feeling right now. I started talking Topamax last week. I began at 25mg and have increased by 25mg every 2 days. I'm on my way up to 200mg. I think I'm currently at 125mg. It's been a very fast titrate and I've been sick with symptoms as each day has passed. Some have gone away and others have come on......but it has been good to find you all (both past and present) and know that I am not as alone as I feel right now.
