Bipolar Disorde
"I took Trileptal from Feb 2015 to Dec 2015 - now weaning off it to lithium. I LOVED the way Trileptal handled my bipolar depression. I felt alert, alive, just really great. Unfortunately, a fall in August alerted my doctor to my bones being weakened. Also, I have optic neuritis in my left eye starting in July. Between those two side effects, we&#039;ve decided to taper off the trileptal and return to lithium. I&#039;m sad to stop it but the soft bones and eye issues are too great a problem to continue it."
