Advice & Tips:
Was awful to start with, got alot worse in my depression an felt suicidal trough all dosage adjustments. Had also really bad cognitive problems like finding words and thinking was impossible. Felt like I was lobotomized.
But then it stabilized and has workd wonders for my mood, migraine and weight as well.
Not so strong antimania-effect as it supposed to be... have been having hypomania ever since I started and have also had one psychotic manic episode. Rather have that then depression though.
