> Using Lyrica was a great idea. I have not seen people complain of depression as a side effect of Trileptal, but I imagine it does happen. There are studies indicating that Trileptal helps mitigate withdrawal from benzodiazepines. Of course, Cymbalta is not a benzodiazepine. I thought perhaps that an anticonvulsant would help with alcohol and SRI withdrawal, too. Perhaps Lyrica is a better choice. I'll keep my eye out for evidence of this.

Hi Scott, nice to see you :)
Trileptal is the stronger anti convulsant. As far as being more of a depressant, I'm very sensitive to that particular side effect. I agree that this side effect is uncommon. Personally, I wish I tolerated trileptal.
