Topirol 50 MG Tablet Health Feed

Health Query

I was diagnosed as case of bipolar disorder about 20 years ago since then I was under treatment. Though I had psychiatric treatment earlier also. At present I am being treated by a veteran retired visiting psychiatrist and on librium tapering off. It is reduced from 10 mg TDS to 5 mg BD in last three weeks and we are likely to finish it in next three weeks. I am taking bupropionSR 150 OD and topiramate 25 BD. I am also taking amlopres. I feel anxiety and hyperdynamic specially in morning to noon rest of the day is normal. I take librium 5, topiramate 25 and amlopres at 7.00 from 8-12 or so I feel above mentioned symptoms rest of the day is normal. As I read more about the disorder medicines prescribed, their interaction and side effects watched related videos I feel more scared and confused. My question is tapering off schedule and treatment wise are we on right track?

I am 24 year old ocdian suffering from ocd from past 10 years though a bit of small to moderate symptoms were present earlier also but they were not as intense as one's life would stop. I was on paxidep cr 62.5 mg for a long time and on oleanz 1.25 mg for 3 months last year in april but they were weight gaining medicine so my doctor prescribed topiramate 25-50 mg .I took it for 14 days and left oleanz as my wt was about 95 kg. I don't know what happened my nature of thoughts completely changed from then. My thoughts had started coming in a slow manner and they were resistant to any therapy I would practice. Also thoughts of guilt and compulsion which had stopped coming long back restarted again. I took paxidep for 5 more months along with buspin 15 mg for few months. But there was hardly any change I noticed in my condition. I realized that the medicines are hardly having any effect on me. So I stopped the medicines for about 50 days and I saw no change in my symptoms after withdrawal also. My doctor was not understanding my situation So I changed the doctor and they changed my medicines and even then my thoughts slowed down much more. Now when I am studying anything l learn is looking same as anything I don't remember. It's almost become impossible to study. My other concern is that my anxiety has fallen down rapidly after that topiramate incident. So What exactly has happened?

Please go for psychotherapy. You deserve to be happier and healthier. OCD is well managed trough psychotherapy. Also download or buy a book called Brain Lock and read it. Also do follow a healthier lifestyle - spend some time outdoors, eat a balanced and healthy diet including lots of water and fruits. These will nut treat you but help in your treatment. You do not have to suffer all your life. All the best.

Dear,
get an eye test and uric acid test done from a proper place. Whatever problems you mentioned later,
can be because of increase in weight and anxiety related to it. Check up with dietitian or nutritionist. For anxiety talk to counselor. You can talk to me on my personal forum.

These tablets may not help.
Take homeopathic treatment which can improve the brain power.
You can consult me at Lybrate.
Till then give chamomilla 200 one dose.
