Well not to much but im on 500mg depakote going up to 1000mg's
and gabitril up to 20mg day.
And risperdal 2mg was on it daily, made me sleep to much.

This is me.....some days are better than others....(as we all know...)  pdoc is pondering the fact that there may be a little ocd lost somewhere in there too..................not quite sure what will be done about that....if anything....

My doctor does integrative psychiatry. He uses nutritional/orthomolecular methods and conventional medications.

um i see your cocktail is as big as mine... hehe (well probably bigger lol)

this is whats working for me:

150mg Effexor XR (AM)
900mg Neurontin (300mg 3/day)
15mg Remeron (PM)

works good so far

Well, I've just switched pdocs and addedd a neurologist to the mix, also a counselor and she is my favorite.  My old pdoc was treating me for BPII and ADD, but barely addressing my TLE, then I got a bad headache - 8 weeks so far.  My new pdoc addedd Dx: Panic d/o w/Agoraphobia

was on Lamictal 200
Effexor XR 225
Adderall 40

now on tegretol 500
neurontin 600
adderall 20 will have to go back up
Lodine
Klonopin .5 x 3
Lortab 7.5 x 3
Effexor 225
Am presently feeling much better, calmer, headache has not resolved hence the Lortab, am a little sleepy, but I guess that's too be expected with the klonopin, but the neurontin is really making me the most tired and making me eat a little more, but hopefully will resolve when i make Dr. A increase my Adderall back to 40. 
Seroquel about 50 mg a night, but i get these from a friend.
have you ever tried vistaril, a friend gave me some that his pdoc prescribes for anxiety and i love it.

Psychiatrist has spoken with my occupational therapist and concluded that the ADD is a real and present problem.  We are now slowly adding Strattera to my cocktail.  18mg will soon be 25mg.  In the meantime (on a likely unrelated note), I am depressed and trapped in bureaucratic limbo by my own inaction.  Frig.
