To answer your question, I haven't been taking anything except an occasional Ativan but I have been doing fine. I DID notice as soon as I came off the Topomax that I slept like a LOG so I know it causes sleep problems. I even told a friend who is a counselor and she said, "So I guess you are sleeping better now." I guess that is a wide spread problem. I have noticed a tad more being impatient but to be honest I feel SOOO much better!! Well, I can ACTUALLY feel. Even at 250mg I felt apathetic and just had NO motivation to do anything. It was horrid. Oh and my bowels started working again. For me, Topomax slowed everything down in that area. I have just been back on 25mg for 2 days so far, so I haven't noticed anything. Even on the 25mg I am not as hungry, so that is a good thing.
